Raucous Rubus | The Durham Brewery
ABV: 5.7%
Style: Saison / Farmhouse Ale
Actively Produced
Description: Part of BrewDog Collab Fest. The biggest collaborative beer festival the world has ever seen. On October 19th 2013 all BrewDog bars will be tapping 12 new never-before-seen beers. All 12 of these beers are the result of our awesome bar teams buddying up with one of their local breweries. Raucous Rubus was brewed by BrewDog Newcastle & The Durham Brewery. Our Newcastle team were originally fancying a raspberry porter, but ended up opting for a raspberry saison because it’s ‘a bit more exotic’ and that’s what you need to keep you warm on the Toon quayside. Having just returned from a trip to Belgium, brewer Steve Gibbs was keen to put what he’d learned into action and took this as an opportunity to experiment. This being the first time Steve had used saison yeast, he decided to use a 50/50 mix of saison and ale yeast to get the proper saison flavours but also allow allow him a degree of certainty when fermenting.
