Spontaneous is our first coolship beer, brewed way back in September 2018. The base beer was made with aged and fresh hops and raw wheat from Barn Owl Malt in Belleville, ON. After brewing, we let it cool naturally in our coolship and inoculate itself with the microbes in the air at our farm. The next morning we transferred it out of the coolship to start its long and slow spontaneous fermentation. It's bottle conditioned and was packaged in July 2020.

Bottle: Poured a gold color ale with a medium size white foamy head with OK retention and light lacing. Aroma of tart and sour notes with some funky ester. Taste is also a mix of tart dominant notes with some very funky ester with a light watery finish. Body is about average with good carbonation. Enjoyable but not as complex as I was hoping and the finale is a bit bland.
