Violent Soho are the latest Aussie band to have their very own beer and they couldn’t be happier. A milestone in the career of any band, Mansfield’s favourite sons will be celebrating their new Stone & Wood collaboration with a string of national launch parties.
The East Coast Crusher, as it’s called, is only Soho’s most recent dalliance with Stone & Wood, having previously featured the beloved Australian brew in their music video for ‘Dope Calypso’. After the Stone & Wood crew reached out to show their gratitude, a relationship was born.
Soho’s own brew is an Aussie unfiltered Kolsch that’s been “dry hopped with Ella and Victoria’s Secret”. It’s what’s known as a ‘Pilot Batch’, which means it’s an experimental, rare, and limited edition brew which until now, has never existed (sort of like a TV pilot).
“Working with good, like-minded people from our community to brew good beer is what we’re about. The Violent Soho boys are our biggest fans and so we were stoked for them to be able to brew their own beer with us,” Stone & Wood say.
“People get to do collaborations with companies all the time but very rarely do you get to collaborate with the best in the industry. We feel like the luckiest dudes in the world that we got to hand craft our own beer with Stone & Wood in the Byron Bay Brewery,” Soho add.
“We cannot wait for everybody to try our East Coast Crusher.” You’ll have a chance to sample the East Coast Crusher for yourself during the band’s launch parties, which will kick off next month just ahead of Soho’s massive tour with The Bronx.
The first 50 people to show their ticket receipt for the October/November tour at one of the launch parties (check below for dates) will get their first taste courtesy of Violent Soho. Meanwhile, the East Coast Crusher will be available for a limited time via the Stone & Wood website later this month.
