A Thousand Summers is a true milestone for our brewery, and it all started with access to some amazing barrels. Some years back we were introduced to a decadent and unique cherry wine while at a festival in Copenhagen. It was love at first sip. We were extremely fortunate later to acquire four French oak puncheons that previously held Frederiksdal cherry wine. Barrels of this caliber deserve to be filled with only the best one’s beer, so we devised a simple but elegant Saison that we then aged on Matsumoto Family Farm “Summer Grand” nectarines. The result is sublime. Flowery descriptors do little to articulate the magic in this bottle; you’ll surely each come up with your own. We are so proud to share A Thousand Summers with you, our friends. To many more, Sante!
