Inspired by the Belgian Flanders Red style, this beer was brewed with lightly kilned malts to produce a deep redden hue. Primary fermentation was undertaken using a strain of Brettanomyces which produces intense red berry aromatics and a balanced funk, followed by a special blend of our mixed culture which has produced a characteristic sweet and sour balsamic quality, typical of the style.

This base beer was refermented on locally grown Scottish blackberries and tayberries (200g/l).
