Hop BroI’ve got a good one today: a CARVAAN tour on July 25 at CARVAAN BREWERY in Hanno, where only 20 people get to walk through both the brewery and the distillery.
MugiWhat! Only 20 spots? That sounds more competitive than the most popular school festival stall. And you get beer and gin too?
Hop BroExactly. The key is staff-guided access to production areas people normally can’t enter. It’s not just tasting, you get the whole behind-the-scenes story.
MugiWait, what’s a distillery? I’m picturing a secret base full of steam!
Hop BroBasically, it’s where gin is finished. Beer is made through fermentation, but gin builds character by layering aroma into the base spirit, so it’s like seeing the blueprint for flavor.
MugiA blueprint for aroma? This got science-y fast! So herbs and spices are what give gin its personality?
Hop BroExactly. After the tour, there’s an Arabian lunch course plus all-you-can-drink. The place sits above the Hanno riverbank, and the whole exotic atmosphere is part of the CARVAAN experience.
MugiWhoa! That reward system is way too strong for a field trip. So what beers show up afterward?
Hop BroFirst, the Arabian Lime Ale is a standout. It’s a golden ale with lime peel and cardamom, crisp but with an aroma that feels like traveling.
MugiWhat is that! Cardamom in beer sounds like the spice rack cannonballed straight into the glass!
Hop BroCARVAAN also comes in strong with six distinct beers. The Spelt Weizen uses ancient spelt wheat for a soft mouthfeel, and there’s also Andes Cacao Stout, Belgian White, Tripel, and Three Wise Men Lager, so the tour basically guarantees thirst.
MugiAt this point, my thirst is sold out! On July 25, I want to tour CARVAAN BREWERY, learn everything, and finish by toasting with both beer and gin.
