Folly Road 2018

While the name might give the impression the beer was possibly a mistake, or folly, the name actually originates from a road that runs near to the brewery of the same name. We used a new to us yeast in this batch, Saccharomyces Kudriavzevii, which is isolated from the bark of oak trees, alongside our own mixed culture to enhance the woody characteristics along with a stronger bitterness not often found in our beers due to the use of more of our locally grown hops. The beer was then aged for 5 months in a second use Rioja cask to round it out.
