This version of Arthur’s namesake beer was aged for more than a year in 500-liter oak barrels housed in the original building (Building 1, as we refer to it). It has been bottle conditioning for nearly two years. Puncheon conditioning yields a subtly different expression than our wine barrels or foudres. The result is not quite Arthur, not quite Art—but magical all the same.

Interesting stuff. Light, a bit sweet, very soft, and pretty refreshing. It's also quite herbal, in a way, maybe something like juniper or spruce? Very nicely balanced, easy and subtle. Light acidity. Fun stuff, easy drinker.
