We've blended saisons before, but this is our first time blending seasonal saisons. The Cellars #12 features two of them: Wildlife Report (a farmhouse-style bière de garde) and Snow Report (a saison with honey), to which we added lactobacillus and pediococcus for a light touch of tartness. The beer was then aged on Australian orange Muscat grape must, lending depth to its rich notes of pineapple, lemon, white grape, and strawberry.

375mL bottle at Publick House, 10/18/25.
Mostly clear, blonde-golden with a touch of peach. Large, fairly-dense, off-white head.
Bright and fruity, but not tannic or acidic. Mineral and aged grape skin with a bit of yellow fruit (golden apple and mild citrus) and biscuity malts that show a touch of bread and light honey. Clean and snappy and not overdone on the grape addition.
Malty with a chewy and biscuity, rustic texture that dries out fully on the finish. Tightly carbonated dispersing the tasteful acidity. Lots of aged, easygoing, mineral-rich grape with lots of Sacch, minimal Brett and very little lacto character. Surprisingly easy drinking for its size.

Nice grape must flavor and funk. Plenty of grape must flavor while still being light on the finish, tasty!
