This was a special beer that we brewed to ring in the end of 2018 with our very good friends Half Acre and Tired Hands. We started by maxing out our mash tun with enormous amounts of Maris Otter and rye, adjusting the mash pH with lacto-acidified Daisy Cutter wort straight from the Windy City. We then boiled it for four hours, hopping it heavily throughout. Next, we dry hopped it with inordinate amounts of classic American hops, both new and old. I think it represents a lot of common threads that our breweries share, so have fun unweaving it :)
