Here it is at last folks – the first in a series of six videos featuring brewdays and general jolling. Each beer is inspired by a karaoke classic. First up, we brewed an American rye wine at Drifter, inspired by Don McLean’s American Pie. The beer – a 9 percenter that is currently being aged on whiskey-soaked oak chips – will be available exclusively at the Woodstock Winter Beer Festival, taking place at the Castle of Good Hope in Cape Town on July 27. Tickets available now at Quicket.

Check out all six videos on my brand new YouTube channel.
