Kvass is our farmhouse ale brewed with rye bread from Miche in Austin.
For this year’s Kvass, we added 300 pounds of rye bread (twice the amount as 2016) to a mash consisting of 60% Munich malt and 40% rye (malted, flaked, and raw). It was fermented in stainless steel with our mixed culture of brewers yeast and native yeast and bacteria. It was packaged on September 6, 2017 and naturally refermented in bottles and kegs. 2017 Kvass is 4.4% alcohol by volume, 26 IBU, 4.0 pH, and has a finishing gravity of 1.002 (0.5 Plato).

Bottle shared at Andrew's B-day Bash. Pours a clear, light copper with a finger of beige head that lingers. Bready aromas with rye seed and faint ryeberry notes. Lightly tart with a sour dough character amongst more seed and wild grainberry notes. Some light sweet bready notes with lingering light funk on the finish.
