Each year a tree creates a new layer of sapwood under its bark, a growth ring, recording the tree's life. So too we add new oak barrels to our sour program each year, slowly expanding. This blend is a cross-section, with barrels selected from our three years of brewing. The younger barrels provide lemon and mineral vibrancy while the older ones bring oaky depth and earthiness.

50cl bottle pours a lightly hazy, dark/rusty orange with some fluffy white head. Nose has lemon juice, some leather, some neutral wood, green grapes, green apples too, lactic acid lurking. Flavor has plenty of acid, lactic and citric, lemons, some raw grapefruit now, acid overpowers the fruit but there's still some green grape and a little raw pineapple, buttery oak. Full bodied, long, acetic finish.
