For the past two years, we've been making a fruited blend with Camerise in small quantities. Also known as haskap or blue honeysuckle, these berries are slightly sweet with a beautiful acidity.
The beer's color is a deep, deep red. It's powerful and very fruit-forward, but still maintains a nice, mellow balance between acidity and astringency.
We didn't have to look very far for a its new name... a blue fruit that makes a blood-red beer: Sang Bleu. Our friend Ammo has outdone himself once again, creating a superb new label to go with its new name.

Maceration of 2-year old lambic with blue honeysuckle.

Bottle at Holy Grale. Sampled from the tap at Holy Graile. Pours a slightly hazy light red with a pink hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges quickly. Aroma has a great herbal funk with a touch of light tart fruits coming through. Flavor is more herbal and funky with only a hint of tartness in the finish.
