On Friday, September 5 at 6 PM Crisis the Jazz Project returns to GCB!
If you haven’t heard of them before, they are a jazz project featuring members of well-known Tampa Bay bands stepping outside their usual sound. Blending their backgrounds into something unexpected, this group brings a fresh take on jazz with familiar faces in less familiar territory. Catch them live and see what happens when musicians push past the edges of their genre.
Our latest collaboration with @pointybelbrew, Rice Rice Baby, is a clean and refreshing rice lager brewed with Riverbend Pilsner malt and jasmine rice. The rice lends a delicate floral aroma and a subtle sweetness that lightens the body while keeping the finish crisp and dry. Perle and Saaz hops add gentle spice and a touch of herbal character that complement the malt and rice without overpowering them. The result is a bright lager with notes of toasted baguette and fragrant jasmine blossom, culminating in a clean, refreshing close.
At 4.5% ABV, this lager shows that true complexity can be found in simplicity.
Rice Rice Baby is on tap now, and we`ll also be pouring it today, Sunday August 31, at the Cool & Crispy Festival at Point Ybel Brewing. Stop by and grab a glass!
