Illawarra Brewing & The Local present Hawaiian Cookie Golden Ale

Illawarra Brewing Company & The Local Taphouse present the sophomore release in their collaboration series, and it is set to outshine the award-winning CHUCK NORRIS American Red Ale.

The HAWAIIAN COOKIE Golden Ale is a beer of summertime passion. The Pacific Rim hops deliver a tropical aroma that rings out like the song of a Polynesian siren, leading into a biscuity malt backbone reminiscent of your grandma’s Anzac bikkies, and finishes with a fresh mouth-feel that will no doubt blur the boundaries of platonic love like Blue Lagoon.

This is your excuse to bust out your Hawaiian shirt and in return we’ll give you a free pint and get you lei’d (excuse the pun..)

Sydney troubadours, Tropical Zombie will provide the entertainment in main bar from 9pm with their sun-kissed guitar licks, jungle-percussive bursts and dual lead vocals.

From 6pm the Rooftop Terrace will host the official launch and we’ll be turning it into a faux-tropical haven... so tropical in fact, you better start your Malaria meds now!!

Thursday 17th October, 6pm

Hargreaves Hill brings Sydney a great collaboration.

Fellow craft beer followers, now and then we feel it is only right that we reward you for your ongoing loyalty not only to us, but to craft beer itself. 

 We would like to announce that on the 8th September 2012, The Local Taphouse will be the only venue in NSW to tap "Our Dark Secret". Some of you maybe aware of what this is, but for those who do not, let us tell you what is going on here. Renowned brewery Moylans from the USA and 2011 AIBA Champion Brewery Winners have collaborated with the Infamous brewery Nogne O from Norway and 2010 AIBA Champion Brewery Winners. They have come across the big drink into the welcoming arms of Hargreaves Hill Brewery (VIC) whom have produced this monumental beer. 

 There is not much information at this moment in time regarding the details of of this mystery beer other than it will be dark and hoppy! The ABV is 8.2% and a newly developed Australian hop 'Victoria Secret' was utilised (this hop is likely to display tropical fruit, citrus and floral characters) 

There is only one venue in each state bringing this delicious beer too you, the stocks are limited and the drinkers will be vast, so get your beer journal now, and take note of the date. 

 You're welcome ;-)
