Victoria Street Bitter
Brewed with a Victorian maltster to mark a hundred years of specialty malt roasting, and modelled on the beers made in Collingwood when the suburb was full of breweries. Chocolate malt and lightly roasted malts give a bready, toasty base with caramel through the middle and a hint of cocoa at the edge. The hopping stays restrained, and the bitterness is firm and drying rather than aromatic.
