Description

Siren Craft – Soundwave

Welcome to tropical hop heaven. Soundwave is eminently drinkable, full of flavour and subtle with bitterness. Siren Craft‘s most famous beer pours with an inviting haze, while big-hitting American hops deliver fruit notes in abundance and a trademark resinous finish.

This has been a long time favourite beer of ours, when this beer launched it helped to establish Siren in the market. Its now a main stay of their core range, and we’ve sunk plenty of them over the years, so are mega excited when they said they would like to share the recipe with the home brew community.

Comments:

This beer suits all formats of packaging, great from bottles, great from keg, and even worth trying serving like a cask beer through a beer engine like Pint365.

Guidance – We have brewed this on a G40 with efficiency set at 85%, this resulted in 23L into the FV, and then 19L packaged after trub and hops loss. All figures and numbers are given as a guidance and you will need to work out according to your own equipment and processes.
