**GBBS BREWERY SPOTLIGHT #4 – WORKING TITLE**
Next up, we've got Working Title bringing two seriously interesting b**rs to our 10th Birthday Great Brisbane B**r Spectacular!
**THE PLACE BEYOND THE PINES 2026**
A foraged, native Pine IPA. Loads of herbal sappy resin, rich caramel and toasted marshmallow dominate a lean West Coast IPA.
Spring harvested, new growth Bunya Pine needles were infused in the mash of a pretty mellow Westie. Malts and hops were kept low to allow the Bunya full expression, with some Simcoe and Galaxy highlighting the pine and unique Australian timber notes.
Unlike the fresh pine needles of North America, this Australian pine (not a true pine) gives crazy eucalyptus notes, along with a herbal sappy resin.
Hand made wooden staves were made and toasted at 180°C for 6 hours. The final b**r was rested on the staves for 2 weeks. The toasted timber gives spices of cinnamon and vanilla, with a caramel and marshmallow body.
The finish is herbal and sappy resin, giving an incredibly complex and unique IPA experience.
**8% ABV**
**SPLASH**
A super juicy watermelon smoothie sour for these humid Brisbane days.
An ode to hanging out and making b**rs with Lee. Way back in 2016 Lee and I made a Watermelon Wheat Ale at Doggett Street. Since then the industry has changed significantly, just like this b**r.
It's got the full smoothie treatment with 15% fruit juice, a touch of lime juice for balance, icing sugar, vanilla and cream.
**5% ABV**
Two very different b**rs, both with a story to tell. Which one are you trying first?
Stay tuned – there's plenty more b**r coming!
Come thirsty. There's a LOT of b**r to get through. 🍺
