Description
Based in Edmonton, AB, we’ve set up our production brewery to be 100% exclusive to mixed fermentation sour and wild beers. Our initial barrel investment allows us to guarantee that all of our beers spend time on oak during the maturation period before they are released. Additionally, all of our beers go through a minimum four stage fermentation lifecycle: initial primary fermentation, secondary fermentation on oak, a homogenizing fermentation after blending, and finally a fourth fermentation in bottle to produce the tight, silky effervescence characteristic of these unique beer styles. Some releases will also include a fifth fermentation (fruited blends) between the other fermentation steps.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours clear, matte red with a fizzy, fading pink crown. Light sweet flavour with sturdy acidity, some tart raspberry, lemony bite, low funk, a little seedy bitterness, tooth-cleaning salty notes. Light bodied with active, massaging carbonation. Further strong tart raspberry to finish, bracing acidity, lemon, a little woody dryness. It’s a nice, toothy fruited sour.
