Robson Sour Float

Add depth of flavour to your favourite brew by creating a brilliant beer cocktail. Using Granville Island’s Hefeweizen beer with fruity flavours of banana and apricot, mix in refreshingly tart pink grapefruit and smooth Canadian whisky we achieve an incredibly light full-flavoured drink.

Ingredients:

1oz Canadian Club Whisky

1oz Pink Grapefruit juice

8oz Granville Island Hefeweizen Beer

Method:

Use a juice press to extract the juice from a pink grapefruit, measure out 1 ounce (28ml) into a beer glass.

Add Canadian Club Whisky and slowly pour Granville Island Hefeweizen into the mixture.

Tips:

Garnish for this beer cocktail is completely optional. You can leave as is or add a wedge of the pink grapefruit to allow additional tartness, or a wheel to show off, or float a wheel in the cocktail.

Hefeweizen means suspended yeast and is an unfiltered wheat ale.
