"This Flanders Red style beer was blended from 80% provision strength ‘young’ stock beer aged 4 months, along with 20% of our most ancient ‘mature’ stock beer which has been aged in whisky casks for nearly three years. The combination of very old and young beers has produced a complex sweet and sour flavour profile with a subtle oak character. This blend was conditioned on whole British grown apricots and plums (approx. 200g/l total) for six weeks. Whilst the apricots were destoned by hand, the plums were left whole to breakdown slowly during refermentation. The result is a complex sweet/sour/savoury blend with notes of apricot, oaky funk, tart plums, dates and toffee apples."
