Strange Fellows Brewing Releases New ‘Pride & Joy’ Cider-Beer Hybrid

The GOODS from Strange Fellows Brewing

Vancouver, BC | If beer & cider had a baby it would be a GRAF – both distinctly different from & greater than the sum of its parents. Like all good love stories this one began with apples – in this case from Dominion Cider’s orchard in Summerland – which mingled with a Saison wort, some Loral hops & wild yeast. After a 6-month honeymoon in French oak, the result is a hybrid of characteristics – his funk, her fruit – the pride & joy of mum & dad.

TYPE: Graf – a cider-beer hybrid
AROMA: Sweet / Herbal / Floral
CHARACTER: Light, dry & slightly funky-fruity
COLOUR: Straw
FOOD PAIRING: Eggs / Seafood / Raclette / Creamy cheese sauces
A.B.V.: 6.7%
RELEASE DATE: Friday July 31st

**Partial proceeds from Tasting Room sales of Pride + Joy for the month of August will be donated to QMUNITY.
