Beginning as a blend of beers brewed over our 2019/2020 spontaneous brewing season, we finished Pastiche in VSOP and XO brandy barrels where it rested for an additional 7 months. It was then refermented on peaches from Thrall Family Farm in Windsor, CT, a perfect companion for the perceived sweetness and hint of vanilla offered by the barrels.

750mL bottled 5/6/22, drunk 12/18/22. Mostly clear, soft maize-golden-peach with a small, off-white head to a ring. Pure, unadulterated cow shit. Wow. Throw some peaches and wheat in there and call it an F-in day. That's about as good as it gets and better than most from Belgium. Not as explosively flavorful as the nose may have suggested, but no slouch nonetheless. Juicy peach, nicely macerated and tastefully balanced with a ton of wheat slickness/blandness. Clean, though with intense barnyard and lingering heavy mineral and peach skin. Nicely dry, great texture. Fox Farm just absolutely crushing the beer game these days.
