It is no coincidence that farmhouse beer and low-intervention wine and cider have so much in common. Letting ingredients and traditional processes be our guide, this collaboration with our old friends from Barmann Cellars just made sense. Using a fruit forward farmhouse ale yeast, extended barrel aging, and both quince fruit and juice from Barmann’s orchard, the tropical and tannic qualities of the quince play a fun-yet-competitive game of rec-league softball on your palate. Not quite a beer, not quite a cider, this is a true collaboration of passions, ingredients and processes between friends. Barrel-aged.
