All three breweries involved in the collaboration ferment their beer with unique blends of yeast and bacteria. In the case of Jester King, all of our beer is fermented with a mixed culture of microorganisms consisting of brewers yeast and native yeast and bacteria harvested from the air and wildflowers around our brewery in the Texas Hill Country. We brewed our version of Cerveza Sin Frontera at our brewery in October 2013 with the help of Chad Yakobson of Crooked Stave and Raphaël Mettler of Trois Dames. The wort, brewed with Hill Country well water, barley, wheat, oats, and hops, was initially fermented in stainless steel for three months, then refermented in Spanish sherry barrels for twelve months, and finally refermented in bottles, kegs, and casks for three more months.
Blend #1 was sherry barrel aged and bottled on 12.16.2014.

Keg at Kings Arms. It pours deep amber with a small white head. The nose is earthy, fragrant, orange sherbet, candy, funk and light caramel. The taste is crisp, tart, acidic, orange sherbet, lemon rind, grapefruit, tangerine, good mouth-pucker and granny Smith apple with a short, dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. A bit acidic.
