Spelt Saison

Barrel-aged wild blonde ale with Groene Bel. "The first thing you'll notice about Rust is the barrel character. Not too heavy, but woven into the fabric of the beer like a fine thread. Juicy aromas of sweet tangerine and a fresh touch of watermint create a calm, winelike structure with flavours that stay close together. Underneath are warm, malty notes that form the rich foundation of this beer. The finish has a soft echo of the Groene Bel dryhop, which lays earthy, mildly bitter notes on top of the wood tannins. Rust was aged on oak for 12 months." BBD is 13/04/2024

Wheat Saison brewed with spices and Colorado hops, collab with Cellar West Artisan Ales. BB is end 2022

"Bière de Garde is a blend of three barrels from three contrasting brews produced in January, July and October 2018. The blend produced an easy drinking, dry, malt-forward beer with balancing bitterness and funk. The bottle fermentation included a phase led by lactic acid bacteria, known as 'sickness', which produces extra weight and fullness to the mouthfeel. Bottled in November 2019, the beer was effectively lagered in bottle at cold ambient temperatures over winter, before completing maturation in the early summer months of 2020."

"Alvinne Fellowship 2020 Ale No 6: Spontaneous Fermentation (40%) blended with mixed fermentation farmhouse sour with quince (60%). 15 month BA on Bordeaux."

"Sour Morello Cherries from Kent were delivered to us fresh and added to a nine month old foudre aged saison. Further ageing and refermentation has drawn out a beautiful colour and complexity of cherry fruit, almond and oak flavours."

"This beer started life in March 2019, brewed with our long term friends at Thornbridge. A portion was released by them as Vicious Circle in 2020. The remainder was sent to us, aged further in our barrels, then blended with a mixed fermentation saison. A true representation of both breweries’ barrel ageing projects, we have come full circle."

"An oak-aged farmhouse ale featuring eastern Washington grown malted grain."

"An Oak-Aged Farmhouse Ale Dry-Hopped with Idaho Gem While hop-forward beers and oak-aged beers may seem to be in different veins, we’ve particularly enjoyed how these elements play off one another in our saisons. Perhaps you remember Jean-Michel, a release that was blended from puncheons and dry-hopped with French Barbe Rouge. The red fruit elements of the hop varietal and the vanillin present in the wood merged together to create an astounding note reminiscent of strawberry pound cake. This convinced us to continue exploring this path in our oak program, and what led to Gus! Starting with a farmhouse ale base featuring Salish Blue wheat from Skagit Valley Malting, Gus completed primary fermentation in oak puncheons and continued to age for 7 months. A hearty dry-hop of flavorful Idaho Gem from Yakima Chief adds distinct notes of red currant, grapefruit, and raspberry to the soft, rounded base beer. Simple, elegant, and extremely drinkable."

"Mésange is our expression of balance. A light Saison. Quick soured and then barrel aged on our house culture. Slightly wild,, slightly hoppy but above all very drinkable. BB is 04/05/2024

"Bitter is a blend of a saison and mature beer from oldebarrels. The saison is made with a good amount of hops. The resulting bitterness works well with the complexity of the older beer, that aged for 2,5 up to 4 years in oak barrels. In the nose you will come across vanilla, dusty cellar and some funk, but also a floral quality — think of lavender and chamomile. The more yeasty character of the saison, with a hint of black pepper, complements the more mature and funky characteristics of the older part of the blend. Taste-wise, you’ll find lemon zest, wood, and interesting herbal notes like sage and terragon. The bright acidity of the wild ale and the firm bitterness of the saison make this a refreshing, yet complex beer. The after taste ends dry, with hints of aromatic apples, like a good calvados."

Blend Five. "Spectre Sister is a blend of two extra pale beers produced in July and August 2020. The worts were made with maize, wheat, oats and rice. They fermented in a mixture of old bourbon barrels and freshly emptied cider barrels (from Oliver's Cider and Perry, and Ross-on-Wye Cider and Perry Company). Conditioning in bottle took place through winter and spring producing an effervescent, bright and delicate saison."

Mixed fermentation barrel aged Saison

Barrel Aged Farmhouse Ale w. Johanniter grape pomace

"Our benchmark mixed fermentation saison was aged for six months in oak to develop it’s distinctive flavour profile. The beer then spent a further three months on fresh Victoria and Marjorie plums. The sweet, yellow flesh gives a deep richness of flavour, whilst the dark skins lend colour and a balanced tartness to the beer."

"Farmhouse ale Festuca hides a wealth of subtle shades of flavours and colours in a simple cloak, forming together a little feast. Aged for nearly a year in an oak barrel with wild yeast and on a dry grain body, it pearls with slightly tart bitterness of flowers and citrus."

"We used a grist containing 100% floor-malted Maris Otter, to try and capture the rich malty aromatics found when opening a bag from the maltings. In May 2021 we drew a wort from a six hour mash stand. The wort was not heated or boiled, and whole leaf Zappa and Bramling Cross hops were left to steep, before primary fermentation in our coolship, initiated by krausening with actively fermenting spontaneous beer.The resulting raw ale continued fermentation in one Herefordshire cider and one Scotch whisky barrel for twenty three months before blending and bottling. As with all our beers, it was bottled completely flat, with a good dose of primings to produce lively carbonation via refermentation in bottle."
