We punched the fruit caps down daily once refermentation had commenced. The beer was on fruit for a total of 5 months before blending together. We blended 3 further components into the beer before packaging.
Conditioning: Packaged with a small amount of priming sugar for natural carbonation in the bottle. We do not add yeast at this point, or at any point in the process. Bottles laid to rest on side and conditioned for 6 months on release.
Ingredients: Malted barley (pilsner), raw wheat, aged hops (whole leaf fuggles, whole leaf strisselspalt, & whole leaf saaz), blackberries (driscoll victoria), raspberries (driscoll maravilla), water.
Brewing season: 2019/2020
