Aged for one year in our smallest ex-Cognac foeder, Auld is our old ale. Inspired by the intersection of Belgian and English brewing tradition, Auld was fermented with our house mixed culture, delivering a dry, vinous and deeply malty beer. Made to toast the quiet, reflective winter nights, enjoy it in good health.

Bottle: Poured a deep copper color ale with a large amber color head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of dry caramelized malt notes with subtle residual sugar notes and some very discreet Cognac notes are also perceptible as well as tart notes. Taste is a mix of dry caramelized malt with light grainy and cereal notes with some very discreet notes of Cognac and oak with some overlaying funky Brett notes with some tartness. Body is about average with good carbonation with light warming alcohol notes. Enjoyable but not sure Brett was absolutely essential to this beer.
