In our earliest days of our brewery, Freckled Fields laid the groundwork for the entirety of our Farmhouse Ale program. It still sits firmly in the middle of where we steer our house mixed culture and marks the most balanced presentation of the style we could endeavor to share. With Barrel-Aged Fields we share a blend of just a few select wine barrels – pulled together not just for their complexity, nuance and complimentary qualities but for their proximity to that true north we see in Freckled Fields.

Brewery draught, 9/15/23. Clear, bright bronze-maize. Small, white head, low retention. Vivacious nose with plentiful lactic acidity and some moderate brett. Very fruity, earthy, mineral-driven and with an assortment of rustic grains. Probably some grape-like acidity/fruitiness and earthiness; I assume that's where most of that is coming from. Rustic and with plentiful cracker and biscuit, dry, tart, fruity. Good attenuation with light white wine character and strong fruit and mineral. Grape-like acidity but no hugely overt grape flavors. Good oakiness lingering.
