Brewed last summer with Pilsner and Rye floor malt from PEI’s Island Malt House, and hopped assertively with Sterling. Fermented in foedre with a collection of house yeast cultures, and conditioned for 5 months. In late October we macerated Riesling pomace briefly in water to create a light piquette that has been used in another beer (details on that one in a few months…) then transferred the bulk of the remaining pomace directly to foedre where it conditioned for a month before being canned and can-conditioned. The resulting beer is lively and fresh with soft Riesling aromatics, a touch of acidity, and snappy funk.

355ml can. Pours a hazy gold-yellow with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves soapy lacing. Aroma of spicy rye malt, funky yeast, white grape skins, oak and floral hops. Sweet flavour of spicy rye malt, funky yeast, lemon, lime, white grapes, oak and floral hops in a crisp, dry, tart finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Nicely done, very enjoyable.
