Only a few kilometres away from the brewery, five generations of farmers have honed their craft of cultivating the most delicious and fresh product they know how to make. We artfully blended Silver Rill Berry Farms’ worthy pursuits with ours in this harvest release: the natural tartness of black currants is a perfect fit for this Brett. Brux. Trois fermented beer, imparting an amazingly inviting hue and a gentle pucker. The complex, balanced result insures satisfaction with both novices and old-hands alike.

Bottle, Blackfish Liquor. Has a beautiful, bright purple colour. There's a deep fruity-berry aroma, with a bit of kettle and just a touch of brett. On the palate, quite fruity, the berry character being quite big here. Good body. Moderate tartness, seems like basic kettle stuff. But the black currant character is pretty good, and that helps make this beer work.

Draft - Berry, woody and earthy. A bit muddled. Clear red with a small white head. Woody and bright berry notes. Woody.

Draught at the Alibi Room, Vancouver, as Elemental Harvest
Dark ruby colour, cloudy, with small pink head. Very light smell of yeast. The acidity is mild, the mouthfeel is dry, traces of currant and mild earthy feeling, mushrooms, freshly cut wood; no bitterness; the final is short, with traces of yeast.
Not offensive, but very simple.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a hazy dark amber with a small white head. Nose brings out cotton candy, red currants, and skittles. Flavour brings out skittles upfront, with some tart red currant. Ugh, way too much skittles. Not good.
