BIGSOUND have just revealed they have teamed up with Mountain Goat to brew an exclusive beer for the 2018 event.

The BOB: Beer of BIGSOUND Hazy Pale Ale was brewed under the supervision of programmer Maggie Collins who, when speaking about the experience, said, "In my years as an avid beer drinker, I thought I had a good grasp on my brewing knowledge."

"That is, until I rolled up my sleeves and got in there to crack open a bag of malt, popped some hops in a kettle and watched the magic happen. Yeast is a beautiful thing."

The flavour profile is described as "a malt bill of Pilsner and Wheat malts [that] provides an easy-going backbeat to citrus and tropical fruit riffage courtesy of headliner hops Mandarina Bavaria and Calypso".

"The light golden colour joins with the aroma of citrus and pineapple notes to create a full-strength quaffable favourite with a mild bitterness."

Mountain Goat brewer, Shane 'Naz' Edwards, revealed that he has "always considered music to be the fifth ingredient when making great beer".

"First job in the morning is to select the day's soundtrack, then the brewing can begin so it’s great that we’ve been able to create a beer for BIGSOUND," he said.

Final tickets are now on sale so don't miss out on your chance to get your hands on this exclusive beer — only at BIGSOUND 2018.
