Running Beer is the first beer we designed for Mills Brewing. It is the purest distillation of how we make beer. This is blend eight.
We still have no set recipe for Running Beer, but blend to a similar flavour profile each time. We produce a variety of worts and welcome the natural variation we are given by the barrels.
This beer is a blend of four brews produced in November 2018, January/March 2019 and May 2020. The worts were made using malted rye and aged hops. They fermented and matured in a mixture of oak barrels previously used by French Burgundy wine and American Bourbon whiskey producers for an average of thirty months. The bottles were then left to condition for a further four months before release.

Bouteille de 75cl @ La Tana partagée avec Vincent, Kevin et Adrien.
BB Nov 2031, bottled Nov 2021.
Dorée-orange, col fin blanc.
Arôme sur un bouquet un peu tannique de la barrique et du vin, frais avec une belle dose de fruité au niveau des effluves.
Palais sur une belle base de funk, le tout reprend une base très proche d'une belle gueuze - pointe de barrique proche d'un vin blanc, chêne, groseille verte et groseille ) maquereau.

Flaska från Etre. Guldfärgad, klar med vit krona. Stor fräschör, citronsyra, funk, citronskal, grönt äpple, trä, fat. Stramt, lagom torr, fräsch syra. Ren och snygg. Påminner särskilt i doften om en geuze, om än inte med samma komplexitet som en belgare. Mycket gott.

Bottle online from the source. Pours light hazed gold with a decent foamy white cap. Aroma: light cidery vibes, funk, oak, vinous hints. Taste: light to moderate tartness, dry, more cider & vinous notes. Medium body with spritzy carbonation. Classy as per usual.

Bottle. Mills online shop. Light haze on a medium gold. Nicely dense white foam. Nose has a whiff of brett. White wine dregs. Clean oak. Sweet whisky notes. Soft apple tannins. Taste has juicy and vinous tartness. Light bitterness. Very easy drinking with fine carbonation. Tart and juicy finish. Reminiscent of a boss Girardin.
