Wild bitter ale with local Cascade.
A thatched farm with an old horse barn, a handful of goats in the meadow, an orchard with yellow fruit trees behind the house, humid hay stacks in the distance and hop vines in the hedge. Scents of the countryside, an open-hearted temper, a beer without ornaments but with truly honest ingredients: that is Erve, our wild cross between a brett IPA and a saison.
Erve is a rustic, dry and bitter beer, with a notable palate of locally grown Cascade hops that give warm notes of stone fruit and citrus. We use whole hop cones because we love their pure and intense flavours and bitterness. Our wild house culture creates a rural and fruity character that is underlined by locally grown heirloom grains.
6.5% ABV

Bottle at home. Allright hazy golden with white head. Grassy hops, grapefruit, wheat, huge Brett, sweaty socks, bready. Actually this goes into Orval territory. Good batch! This is way better than I remember this beer from the past, less grainy and sweet and more hoppy and dry.

Small bottle from Survival Kit A. Hazy golden with white head. Dry wheats and hay and lots of yeasty notes, quite strong bitter front block reaching the fruity notes in the back. Light sourness. Medium body and soft carbonation, sandy, chalky feel.
