Shadow & Substance was brewed as a dark sour ale base, fermented with Brettanomyces Drei and Brettanomyces Brux, and aged for 18 months in used red wine barrels. After being finished with cherries, figs and cascara for tart flavors of cherries, dark fruits and cocoa, it was bottle conditioned for a bright and effervescent carbonation.
