We Brewed A Beer With Sawdust City!

 

Life has been so hectic at BAOS HQ that we didn't even have time to let you guys know we brewed a beer with Sawdust City!

So back in November, Brewmaster Sam Corbeil reached out to us for a collab brew. Because he knows us so well, he suggested an ~8% hazy IIPA brewed with all Australian hops. We couldn't say "HELL YES!" fast enough.

On January 12th, the BAOS team headed to Gravenhurst to connect with Sam, Head Brewer Caleb and Brewer Jimbo for the brew day, and we had such a great time. Check the vlog below to see how it all went down.

Our creation was the 8.5% Get It In Ya! Double Dry Hopped New New England Australian Double India Pale Ale (DDHNNEADIPA) - try saying that five times fast - brewed with Galaxy, Vic Secret and Ella hops. Fun fact: this beer used the most hops that Sawdust City has ever dropped in a beer and we're extremely proud of that fact. 😊 We also dedicated the beer to Cee's father Bruce Thorn, who passed away in 2016, which made it extra special for us.

Get It In Ya! is now available for purchase direct from the brewery and via Sawdust City's online store. At the time of writing, there's just over 16 cases left from like 3500 cans - so if you're in Ontario, don't wait and get your order in!

We want to send a HUGE thank you to everyone who has already purchased and posted about the beer. We're incredibly humbled and grateful for this opportunity. We never would have imagined that our stupid faces would land on a beer label, especially with a brewery like Sawdust City. ❤️

It isn't every day that a brewery as esteemed as Gravenhurst's Sawdust City asks you to brew a beer with them. We interviewed Brewmaster Sam Corbeil back in the summer of 2016 and we've been mates every since, so when the Sawdust team came up with the idea of a collab and reached out, we screamed "YES!"
We'd collaborated with breweries before, but this time it was something special. So when our good friends at Sawdust City hit us up for a collab, pitching us a hazy, juicy 8%+ double IPA brewed exclusively with Australian hops (Galaxy, Ella and Vic Secret), dedicating the beer to Cee's late father and putting our stupid faces on the label - who were to argue?
