This is the third in our series of blended American Wild Ales. This beer is a blend of three barrel components. The First is Barn Coat our house saison aged for over 3 months in a third use brandy barrel with a mixed yeast and bacteria culture and loose leaf gunpowder green tea. The Second component is a tart saison fermented with Bartlett pear puree in stainless steel and then re-fermented on oak staves and more pear puree with a mixed yeast and bacteria culture. The Third is a sour golden ale aged for over 11 months on bourbon staves with a mixed yeast and bacteria culture. We then re-fermented the final blend in bottle with freshly pressed pear juice to add even more fruit character.

750ml bottle I picked up at the brewery and shared with the DC crew. Pours a hazy gold with some frothy, white head. Nose is mild, some odd fruit, lime, some green grape, lightly vegetal. Flavor has lemon, a little savory herbs like sage, grapefruit, green grape. Tart finish. Simple.
