Description: Standing beer is brewed in the summer, working with the warmer weather to aid an ambient-temperature ale yeast driven primary fermentation in our coolship.
The pale wort is made from barley, spelt, and whole-leaf European hops. After around ten days open fermentation in our coolship, the young beer is transfered to large oak casks for a secondary fermentation with our indigenous wild yeast and bacteria, until the winter. Finally, the beer is dry-hopped with whole-leaf hops and bottle conditioned for several months before release. The finished beer is highly effervescent and heady, with aromas of citrus, stone-fruit, and wood. The palate is dry, medium bodied, and cleans off with an assertive peppery snap.
We're not quite sure how to classify it. Part Belgian pale, part farmhouse ale, part 19th century IPA. We're very much looking forward to hearing what you make of it.
