This is limited-release, collab beer is brewed at Irrational Brewing Co. and aged at Trial & Ale Brewing. The process used for ageing Irrational Trials is called solera, i.e. fractional blending in a way that the finished product is a mixture of ages, with the average age gradually increasing, as the process continues over many years. Maintaining a solera with fractional portions of each batch remaining in the barrels leads to a familiarity from release to release.

The idea behind the project is the combination of two worlds. The beautiful farmhouse ales produced @irrationalbrewing , that use the finest locally sourced malts from Alberta’s top maltsters @hogarthmalt , pair perfectly with the microbe saturated oak @trialandale cellars. This project is intended to produce wild farmhouse ales with depth, character, and charm.

From both of our breweries, we hope you enjoy our little solera project!
