Pepperjack ale
Pepperjack ale
Another beer that's been made by a winery, seems to be a few out there at present. Found this one at DM's, about $3.69 a stubby I think. Rather nice too, a deep coppery colour, with a taste not dissimilar from JS Amber Ale. Definitely worth a try.
I enjoyed this beer , had a similar hoppiness to LCPA and very smooth . The shiraz grape juice isn't overpowering and gives it that reddy colour. I think I read somewhere that the guy from Saltrams wines got the brewer from Matilda Bay ( Rogers ) to help him design the ale. Maybe why it tastes a little similar to the Little Creatures style.

Re: Pepperjack ale
i tried some of this at the saltrams restaurant. a couple with a steak dinner went very well. doubt i would drink it on its own though.
beer never tells me it's not in the mood.
