Blackberry & Blueberry | 2021 Harvest is a blend of traditionally brewed spontaneously fermented beers from a single brewing season: one batch containing New Jersey blueberry blossom honey, and another aged in a chestnut puncheon. In August of 2021, we picked up our harvest of New Jersey grown blackberries and added them directly to oak with the blend for refermentation. At the end of summer, we received that year's New Jersey blueberry harvest and added these directly to stainless. We racked the blackberry spontaneously fermented beer to cold soak on the skins and juices of the blueberries for a short period of time before racking back to oak for refermentation and conditioning. At bottling, this blend had an average age of 27 months and has been conditioning since its bottling in early 2022. Blackberry & Blueberry | 2021 Harvest pours a deep purple color with ruby highlights and a rocky pink foam. This beer pushes aromatics of jammy blueberries and overripe blackberries supported by a malolactic creaminess, making this reminiscent of a full-bodied California Cabernet Sauvignon.

500 ml bottle from Kane, 2020 Harvest, Bottled May 2021, 7/14/23. Pinkish-purple color, light pink head. Tart berries. Very acidic for the style, just punches you in the face with that acidic / vinegar thing - a bit too much from my perspective. It could use a little sweetness or something to give it some balance. Still very good overall though.
