Within Itasca State Park lies the headwaters of the mighty Mississippi River, and the delicious Honeyberries from our friends at Honeyberry USA were grown just down the road. We blended small percentages from five barrels of Methode Traditionelle Lambic-style ale, spontaneously fermented from our 2017/2018 coolship season, onto 5 pounds per gallon of these Honeyberries for 3 months. Funky bitterness, balanced acidity, blackberry pie, raspberry jam and blueberry coulis are characteristics you can expect from this Minnesota gem. Bottle-conditioned with local wildflower honey from The White Family's busy little bees. Crack this bottle with your teammates while planning your next northwoods adventure.

Tap. Dark ruby color with pink head. Aroma is blueberries, funky stuff, no honey yet. Taste got some honey to it, berry skin, some tannins. Tannins in the back, medium carbonation. Tasty!
