Our Gose-inspired Farmhouse Ale begins with a base of Connecticut grown wheat and barley and undergoes a primary fermentation with our mixed culture in stainless steel followed by a stopover in one of our oak foeders. Alongside additions of sea salt, coriander and citrus, this batch was re-fermented on sliced cranberries. With gentle salinity and a pleasing acid profile Leeway is all about refreshment but in this batch we find that classic perceived dryness and natural fruit character that reminds us of the holidays ahead.

750mL bottle, batch #1, Jun 2021, drunk 6/22/23. Bright, cherry-red. White head sitting at cover. Clear. Nose is just wow. Clear, clean, bright, strong and aromatic with bits of herbs and spice. Cranberry adds a bright acidity with soft salinity and hints of spicy citrus. Soft wheat. Mixed culture is refined with well-aged, mellow characteristics. Soft, juicy, tart, without any overly acidic cranberry. Soft, nutty wheat, juicy orange, lactic acid with peppery notes and deep, lightly honey-tinged malts. Just enough sweetness but still refreshing and tart.
