Informal is a new series of one-off beers, focussed on using our barrel stock in new ways. This version is a take on Saison de Coupage, the historical practice of blending old barrel aged beer into young saison to hasten it’s maturity. For this version we brewed a bitter 7% farmhouse ale, and blended it 80:20 with 2 year old barrel aged golden ale, we then conditioned it on second use Carménère wine grapes for a few months.

Bottleshare from me: pours orange with a small head. Aroma is grape, funk, wood. Taste is quite tart, some grapiness, woody aftertaste. Solid complexity.
