The fun facts

This is the first Staple item we have added to the beer list since Arvo almost two years ago. We wanted to add a new staple for a while but couldn’t decide which style would be best. Then, while sampling hops in Nashville we stumbled across Luminosa from Indie Hops out of Oregon (which had big peach/mango lemonade, candied orange peel, boysenberry, papaya and guava) and Nectaron from New Zealand (RICH Stonefruit, citrus background, sweet fruit) to create something truly special and unique.

The pairings

fried chicken, spicier dishes, roasted pork, crème brulee
