Brooklyn Brewery collab with Lost and Grounded Brewers

Brooklyn Brewery has teamed up with Bristol-based Lost and Grounded Brewers to produce Face In The Crowd, a new collaboration.

The 5.2% dry-hopped sour has been brewed exclusively for Tesco and boasts “tangerine and passionfruit character, with a tart, super-hoppy finish” thanks to the addition of El Dorado, Citra and Mosaic hops.

Garrett Oliver, brewmaster at Brooklyn Brewery, explained: “Believe it or not, Brooklyn Brewery actually invented the now-popular idea of the brewery collaboration back in the 90s!

“All of our original collabs were with British breweries. It’s great to be back in the UK and working with Lost & Grounded, who are great brewers and really cool people.”

Founders of Lost & Grounded Brewery, Alex Troncoso and Annie Clements, added “As long-time admirers of Brooklyn Brewery it was quite something special to be invited to brew a collaboration beer with Garrett.

“We threw a few ideas back and forth across the pond and ultimately decided a thirst quenching dry-hopped sour would be a perfect match for both breweries.

“Soured with our own in-house lactic culture, dry-hopped and finally brewed together with Garrett over a mutual love of saison style beers and warm and humorous stories we hope this beer will be enjoyed as intended – with likeminded good folk under the summer sun!”
