AVO LOOK AT THIS BEER!

The clever kids at Parrotdog brewery have always loved a good avocado, and signed up to get theirs delivered from The Avo Tree. It became the start of a New Zealand first, combining avos and beer. The collab kicked off when The Avo Tree owner Thorley Robbins contacted Parrotdog to propose a joint brew. “Nice,” they said. “Our brew team took The Avo Tree’s avocados, split, scooped and mashed them up with lime juice then added the avocado mash to the beer after fermentation,” says Parrotdog’s Lucy Aitchison. “Spice and coriander seed were earlier added to the wort... to bring the classic Gose notes, in a technique similar to dry hopping”.
