When Counter Weight first started we had many conceptual goals that we hoped to accomplish as we moved forward. One of which was to eventually be able to create 100% spontaneously fermented beers inspired by educational trips through Belgium. After more than 4 years of lessons learned, barrels dumped, and the joy of seeing some spontaneous beer have tasty depth in aroma and flavor we finally have our first 100% spontaneously fermented beer to share with you. Metanoia is a blend of 1 and 2 year old spontaneous barrels rested on Carignan wine grapes. The result is a beer with notes of juicy ripe raspberry, tart pomegranate, subtle spice with a bright acidity. It's almost hard for us to believe that the conceptualization of this beer began more than 5 years ago and is in bottles and ready to be enjoyed.
