Left Hand Giant – Cheeseburger Cavalry

Bristol-based Left Handed Giant are one of the most highly rated breweries in the UK, having established their in 2015 business as cuckoo brewers (leveraging the spare capacity of partner breweries) before expanding into a custom-built brewery in Bristol in late 2017. Their brewing is rooted in experimentation with beers ranging from hoppy pales to barrel-aged sours. In early 2018 they opened a second larger facility, as well as a brewpub in the heart of the city. The dedicated waterside space will also house a restaurant and brewery tap. Their intention is to turn their existing brewery into Bristol’s first sour brewing and blending facility.

Comments:

These kits include all grains, hops, and yeast needed to brew the recipe according to the instructions found in CAMRA’s Essential Home Brewing book.

Cheeseburger Cavalry is a hazy American-style IPA featuring Citra and Mosaic hops. The Citra brings notes of peach and citrus fruits whilst the Mosaic adds blueberry, papaya and a subtle savoury character. The hop flavours meld together perfectly and are enhanced by lifting the aroma using extensive dry hopping. The body is very pale with a small amount of carapils and oats adding body to counter help the dry finish.

Every effort is made to match the brewery recipe precisely, but at times it maybe necessary to change some of the listed ingredients on the recipe to alternatives due to seasonality or availability, but in all cases we do our best replace with something that won’t impact on the overall taste and flavour of the beer.

This kit does not contain Warrior, and uses Columbus in place as an alternative.
