Fly with me – apricot is spontaneously fermented beer with our own apricots. You could hardly find more typical local product than apricots. We wanted beer that reminds you the summer – juicy, aromatic fruit with warming rays of sunlight. It is very complicated to brew apricot beer. That’s why it is just a limited edition. We do believe that you enjoy our apricot beer as much as we do.
We use pale malts and unmated wheat when brew the base beer. In the open vessel we inoculate the wort and pump it into barrels afterwards. “Fly with me” is spontaneously fermented beer aged for months (sometimes more than a year). We do not use lab-derived yeast; it is 100% local microflora. Apricots are picked manually. The proper time of harvest is essential. Apricots must be well ripe - so ripe, that they would not survive any transportation. We have to process them immediately. And this we can do only thanks to our own orchard. We add into beer whole fruit (the ratio is 20%) and let it ferment and age for months.
When you pour the beer, first you will feel strong apricot aroma. Full, true, fruity taste accompanies harmonic acidity.
Open your mind and fly!
