Oak Fermented Rustic Shipyard Ale generously hopped with French Aramis in the kettle, and New Zealand Motueka and Wai-iti in the whirlpool. Aged for 12 months.
Havnesæson Blend 3: Havnesæson pretty much summarizes what Baghaven stands for. A base of all locally grown and malted barley is enhanced with malted wheat, raw buckwheat, and emmer. Generously hopped with French Aramis in the kettle, and New Zealand Motueka and Wai-iti in the whirlpool.
Havnesæson is the perfect balance of cracker malt character, grassy and citrus hops, and acidity from extended aging of 12 months in a large foeder. A staff favorite, and quickly becoming our flagship beer!

Copenhagen 6/6 2020. 75 cl corked bottle from Kihoskh, Søndre Boulevard, Kbh. V. As "Mikkeller Baghaven Havnesæson - Blend 3". The usual Baghaven design with a drawing of Baghaven Brewery in light and dark green.
Pours hazy, golden yellow with a big, bubbly white head. Settles as very thin film of foam struggling to cover the surface of the beer.No lacing.
Aroma is medium intense and somewhere between a Lambic and a tart white wine. Light fruity odor of rispe berries. Tart, dry white wine. Light touch of funk. Sour cheese and barnyard.
Fairly strong carbonation. Thin, oplyser, lively and tingling texture.
Flavor is intense with a light sweetness followed by a strong, tart sourness. A bit acerbic and sharp. Aftertaste is tart and sour. Lingers for a while. Finish is dry.
Tart and sharp with a light touch of funk. What's not to like.
