PICTON, ON – Parsons Brewing has announced details for this year’s vintage of a beer-wine hybrid made using grapes from the brewery’s own vineyard.
Sunkissed Grape Ale (7.5% abv, 18 IBU) is described as follows:
Our small vineyard consists of 500 vines – Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Upon harvest the juice from our grapes is blended with a golden ale and fermented together with Saison yeast. The result is something very unique – a hybrid of 30% wine, 70% beer that is cloudy by nature with a tart open, a subtle juiciness and lingering hints of crisp orchard fruit.
The 2018 edition of Sunkissed is limited to 800 bottles, and can be pre-ordered online now for pick-up at the brewery.

- Greg C. is drinking a Nordic Lager by Henderson Brewing Co at King & DufferinA very good malt-forward lager with a respectable depth of flavour & nice herbal tones from the Angelica root & hops.
- Greg C. is drinking a Zodiak by Omnipollo at King & DufferinIn a review from 2 years ago I described this as “a straight-up hop-forward IPA” that was “old school done right.” That opinion stands.
- Greg C. is drinking a Peach Vanilla Mango by Dugges Bryggeri at King & DufferinFlavoured IPAs don’t tend to be a fave of mine, especially multi-flavoured ones, but this one gets the fruit-vs-beer balance just right.
- Greg C. is drinking an Electric Unicorn by Phillips Brewing Company at King & Dufferin‘member when White IPA was a hot new beer style, with its great combo of spicy Belgian witbier & citrus forward IPA? So does Phillips. ⚡️🦄
