Barrel-Aged Wild Ale with Barbera Grapes and Sour Cherries
Bottle Release 2/2/24 - $16/500mL
It's pretty absurd that we get to support ourselves by brewing sour beer! We got together with our friend Jennings to blend this combination of barrels of an older-funkier "Marylandbic" and a younger-hoppier wild ale. We infused them with Barbera red wine grapes from Crow Vineyards (Kennedyville, MD) and sour cherries from Baugher's Orchard (Westminster, MD). The finished beer is tart, jammy, with just a touch of new tennis ball from the house culture!
Cheers,
Mike, Scott, & Jennings
