Farmhouse style ale aged in wine barrels for 15 months with a Brettanomyces yeast strain that produces fruity esters. Following barrel aging, we racked the beer onto fresh yellow peaches and nectarines. A dry, bitter beer with fruity and spicy yeast character supplemented by subtle peach and nectarine notes.

While Brettanomyces (?Brett?) yeast is known for producing the funky flavours and aromas in wild ales, it was actually first isolated from British stock ales, hence its name meaning ?British Fungus? in Greek. It is believed that Brett living within the wooden barrels used to age these stock ales gave them their distinctive complexity and smoothness. Taking Stock was aged in oak barrels for eight months with the specific Brett strain that was originally isolated from these stock ales.

Weissbier (wheat beer) originated in Bavaria in the 16th century. At the time, the ruling dynasty controlled production, only giving a privileged few the right to brew wheat beer (Weissbierregal). Regal Authority is our rendition of an original 16th century Weissbier. We fermented it in wooden barrels for 4 months and like most beers of that historical era, it is naturally sour due to the microflora living within the wood.

Mahogany in colour with nutty, plum, caramel, wood and leather notes. Nicely balanced between the moderate sweetness, substantial bitterness and light acidity.

Doppelbocks are a strong, rich and malty lager originally brewed by Bavarian monks in the 17th century. Designed to sustain the monks while they abstain from solid foods during the 40 day Lent period, doppelbocks earned the nickname ?Liquid Bread?. Disclaimer: We do not condone 40 day beer-only diets.

Bear Hug is an Oud Bruin style sour, otherwise known as a Flanders Brown. It was aged for 16 months in oak barrels, before being can conditioned for a further 5 months. This long aging period allows the Pediococcus bacteria to develop the desired sourness and also results in the malt profile  acquiring some sweet sherry like flavors. A complex blend of dark malts and fruity esters, with balanced sweetness and sourness.

Morning Light is a golden sour fermented and aged in wine barrels with Belgian Saison yeast, Brettanomyces and Lactobacillus.
