Details announced for Session Toronto collaboration beer and release
Toronto, ON – Session Toronto Craft Beer Festival this week announced details for its Local 7 collaboration beer – which will see a wide draught release in Toronto and bottle availability at the LCBO.
Seven Toronto bars, including Bryden’s, Bar Hop, Bar Volo, C’est What?, The Auld Spot, The Only Cafe, and WVRST, have teamed up with Sawdust City Brewmaster, Sam Corbeil, to produce Session Saison – a 6.5% raspberry lemon Belgian-style Saison brewed with three malts and Saaz and Magnum hops.
“Each of the bars received a special cask or one-off with the Saison base,” says Session organizer Jed Corbeil. “We then added a special ingredient to each one… From ginger, to chocolate to brett – there are some very unique beers.”
Session Saison Tapping Sessions:
April 2, 2014- Bar Volo, Bryden’s and The Auld Spot.
April 9, 2014 – Barhop & Wvrst
At these tapping events, when you by a pint, you get a coupon for 25% off tickets to Griffin SESSION Toronto.
Session Saison will be available at the LCBO, in 750ml bottles, beginning Friday, May 2 2014 featuring a launch party and tasting at the LCBO’s Summerhill location in Toronto beginning at 4pm.
The collaboration is part of Session’s larger Collaboration Nation with pairs local brewers with local artist. Ten of the first thirty participating breweries for 2014 have been announced including Barley Days, Beau’s, Kensington, Mill St., Muskoka, Pommie’s, Sawdust City, Side Launch, Snowman, and Steam Whistle.
