Barrel-Aged Woodthrush
Barrel-aged Biere de Garde
We age our lightly spiced “Farmhouse biere de garde” in red wine barrels for 3-6 months with wild yeasts and bacteria, where it picks up some sourness, wine/oak character, and some “barnyard funk”. It’s then bottle conditioned for at least two months before releasing. This beer picked up a Gold Medal at the 2016 World Beer Cup for Belgian and French Style Ale.
Flavor Profile: Medium on the sourness spectrum, juicy tartness, Cabernet wine and French oak, dry finish.
6.7% ABV, Gluten Reduced
