Bug Farm is our farmhouse ale with rosemary, lavender, and spearmint, re-fermented with watermelon. We brewed the base beer with Trinity well water, TexMalt Llano Pilsner, malted wheat, raw wheat, and organic Perle hops. We fermented in stainless steel with JK mixed culture, added rosemary, lavender, and spearmint to taste, then re-fermented with over two tons of fresh watermelon hand-processed at Jester King.

Mixed culture fermentation of fresh watermelon creates one of our favorite flavor profiles, which makes Bug Farm a house favorite at Jester King. Unfiltered, unpasteurized, and naturally conditioned.

Batch #3 bottle from Livonia Liquor. Pours a clearish straw gold with a full finger of white head that lingers. Watermelon juice and rind right off the rip. As it warms the lavendar and rosemary appear. Palate shows mineral, watermelon and JK funk with lavendar on the backend. Dry finish with a nice summery feel with the watermelon and mineral notes. Really solid.
