ALL BEER A-Z

Cult classic movie Spinal Tap inspired us to create a brew with our heaviest hop dosage ever (6lbs per bbl) for this dank wholesome fruity NEIPA. Mosaic, Citra and Vic Secret hops provide the trifecta of tropical fruitiness, balance with a soft mellow mouthfeel.

It looks like beer, tastes like beer and so we just call it Beer. A simple golden ale best enjoyed where the focus is on the crew you are with, not the complexity of the beverage you are imbibing.

We brew this beauty annually to suit the warm days and cool evenings of this time of year. The taste and texture of dried fruit - apricots & figs - feature strongly through a malty backbone and distinct fruity esters from @escarpmentlabs French Saison yeast, topped by a super dry finish. 
A smooth, dry, black lager featuring chocolate and coffee flavours without the bitterness of a stout.

Two iconic PEC businesses together at last!  Bourbon barrel aged for 14 months and infused with a gigantic tub of Slickers Campfire ice cream.  A tantalising rollercoaster of flavours that opens like a bourbon filled chocolate truffle, wanders through espresso territory and ends with a smoky creamy finish.  Best shared with a loved one.  Or not.  

A rich delectable chocolate ganache with a subtle banana dipped in rum feel. Rum barrel aged for nearly 2yrs, blended with a measured amount of banana puree and fresh roasted cracked cacao this stout delivers a depth of flavour and texture that is like liquid fondue for adults.

Latin American sweet tooth, meet high abv barrel aged stout. All the coffee, chocolate and bourbon notes from our barrel aged Devil's Right Hand Imperial Stout, with caramelly layers of dulce de leche, cinnamon and doughy deliciousness. Bebe como un sueno. Google translate that.

Called Crushable for a reason - this traditional German Pilsner is made for a hot summer day. Unfiltered because it has nothing to hide. Using only German malt & hops make for a malt-forward open and a dry finish.

This Imperial Stout chimes in at 8.5% ABV without the slightest trepidation.  Luscious dark cocoa and delicate coffee notes are evident within this malt-forward monster of a beer that maintains a velvety smooth balance despite its high ABV.

Aged in Bourbon barrels. This is the barrel aged version of the Son, aged in Old Forester Bourbon barrels.   Mild notes of tobacco complement the vanilla and slight toasted flavours emanating from the oak barrel. A thought provokingly distinguished stout.

This is the barrel aged version of the Elder, aged in Old Forester Bourbon barrels. Luscious dark cocoa and toasty vanilla provide the backdrop for a warm boozy brew intended for fireside drinking.

This is the base recipe for our Devil's Right Hand Premium line of stouts - a chocolately smooth brew that will warm the cockles of your heart.

We've cracked the code to Dr Pepper's secret recipe . Gargantuan bourbon barrel aged imperial stout meets iconic soft drink creating a concoction for the ages - rich layered vanilla and sarsaparilla textured with bourbon, coffee and chocolate. Sumptuously decadent.

A smooth stout topped off with Samantha's father's organic coffee grown on the sloped coastline of the volcanic Lake Atitlan in Guatemala. Deep notes of toasty chocolate from dark malt grown in Patagonia, Chile, and an uncompromising coffee punch balanced by the citrus and herbal aromas of cascade and Williamette hops. *BrewOn Certified

We took our Mousetrap Rye Pale Ale and aged it in rum barrels and out came a masterpiece - Caribbean spices on the nose and palate contribute a warming effect balanced by a mild sugar cane sweetness reminiscent of a Scotch Ale. Dangerously smooth.

A complex beer with the punch profile of Rye malt, balanced by the rich almost nutty flavour of Maris Otter. Throw in a modest late hops addition, and you have a beer that challenges every taste bud on your palate.

A big focus on oats in the grain bill of this 8.1% abv DIPA gives it a full mouthfeel without being sweet.   Honeydew melon and citrus from heavy handed Mosaic and Citra hop additions.  Have two back to back and it makes your face tingle, right @freshlemonadedave? 

Younger sibling to the face tingling DIPA of the same name, this IPA packs all the same tropical fruit flavours in with a lower abv. Soft mellow pillowy finish. Get involved!

Inspiration can at times come from desperation. Lime Creamsicle IPA - was dreamt up during a semi-hallucinogenic heat wave daze that demanded ultimate thirst quenching satisfaction. *contains lactose

Like biting into a juicy fresh Niagara peach!   A biscuity aromatic grain bill nicely rounds out the heavy handed Sabro and Sasquatch dry hop additions.  Thirst quenching and exhilirating, tastebud tickling and tantalizing, it ticks all the boxes of a fruity summer IPA.

Bringing the pH of an IPA down to a modestly puckery level that further brings forth the aromas and bright flavours of an IPA has been in the hamster wheel for a while.. and we are very excited about this one.  Featuring Nelson Sauvin hops and Phantasm NZ Sauv Blanc powdered grape skins.

Polička is a town the size of Picton with one quaint brewpub with a history dating back to 1517 that provided strong inspiration in shaping Parsons Brewing. To pay homage to the age old tradition of a brewpub as a gathering place for their community to eat, drink and connect, we introduce Polička Czech Pilsner. Brewed with floor malted Czech barley, fermented low and slow and cold conditioned for six months this unfiltered Czech Pilsner is exceptionally smooth with the renowned balanced zestiness of Czech Saaz hops. Na zdraví!
The prickly pear fruit not only provides a deep neon pink hue, but lends this kettle sour beer notes of watermelon and bubblegum. A generous dry hop addition of El Dorado hops brings forth bright tropical flavours. We are pumped about this one!
A traditional English brown ale brewed to celebrate the Regent Theatre's 100 year anniversary. Malty, nutty, with a subtle dried fruit undertone reminiscent of a fruit cake.

The second release from our Hula Hoop series. Bright and opaque, sweet and tart with a light creamy mouthfeel - a perfect pairing for outdoor cooking and sunshine! (contains lactose)

Blended barrel aged stout. Blending beers has become a passion of ours at Parsons. The culmination of multiple experiments is this blend of our Eightball Milk Stout and our Devil's Right Hand base recipe aged in rum barrels. Mild rum spice on the nose and a warming effect that finishes with a distinct crème brûlée aftertaste. A multi-layered delectable feast for the senses.

An impregnable fortress of a beer - a sweet almost creamy mouthfeel from the oats balanced with the spicy bitterness of chocolate rye malt round out this stout. This year's version fermented with Escarpment Labs' Premium Pils lager yeast is extra smooth! *BrewOn Certified

A dry Saison highlighting the complex flavour of Belgian Saison yeast. A tempered late addition of Australian Summer hops add an element of stone fruit in what is otherwise a dry, sessionable brew. *BrewOn Certified.

Cloudy by nature with a tart open, a subtle juiciness & lingering hints of crisp orchard fruit. Our small vineyard consists of 500 vines - Pinot Noir & Chardonnay. Upon harvest, the grape juice is blended with a golden ale and fermented together with Saison yeast. The result is something very unique - a hybrid that is 30% wine and 70% beer.

In a nod to the Rickarton's Castle boathouse we brewed this malty brown ale with a crisp tangy bready finish. Our first foray into nitro cans - shake, pour hard & enjoy! The Rick was an epic venue for live music, cheap beer and a fair few fisticuffs.

A deep chestnut brown ale topped by a near-white creamy head. Maris Otter and chocolate malt combined with English ale yeast lends this brew toasty toffee notes while the earthy floral attributes of Willamette, Fuggles & East Kent Golding hops make it a perfectly smooth brew.

Parsons Brewing's take on a classic unique style of beer "as old as man" - Belgian Lambic - technically it can't be referred to as Lambic since it is not from the Brussels area (like Champagne can't be called champagne unless it is made in Champagne, France or parmigiano in Italy). ... so we call it a barrel funked bottle conditioned ale.

This Gueuze contains a blend from barrels aged for 5yrs and 1-1/2yrs, co-fermented with Brettanomyces, Pediococcus, and Lactobacillus. Cloudy by nature, tart but not sour with a subtle fresh cut hay nose, honey-dew melon body and a lingering orchard fruit finish, emanating through delicate, tiny bubbles.

The second release of our Two Left Feet series this Kriek contains a blend of 5yr and 2yr barrels aged on a copious amount of Montmorency cherries for six months bringing forth a vibrant acidity. Bottle conditioned and suitable for cellaring for years. The tart cherry intensity will moderate in time with the funky brettanomyces notes taking a more prominent role in this multi-level textured beer.

A generously-hopped incredibly refreshing West Coast style pale ale named after our 1972 VW Westfalia beer delivery van. You'll find it hard to sip slowly. Dry-hopped with Simcoe & Citra for a hint of grapefruit zest.

Nutmeg , clove, cinnamon and a subtle orange juiciness provide the undertones to a one-off release of our rum barrel aged cult favourite Mousetrap Rye Pale Ale. Chef Sean Finnerty says it goes down like a Manhattan.

This beer encapsulates 1980s Japan - made with Sorachi Ace hops, yuzu puree and lime zest. Perfect for sunny days.
