Looking back at our very first batches five years ago, we reflect on our evolution as a brewery. We've grown quicker than we could have imagined and owe that success to all of you who've supported our dream. The beer in this bottle has also been evolving. It began fermenting as an amber ale more than three years ago, and was then introduced to used oak barrels with an in-house wild yeast. We finally finished aging with Brettanomyces to lend a slight tart cherry character. We celebrate our first five years with this barrel-aged brew and raise a toast to the next five!

This beer is bottle conditioned and will be slightly flat in the traditional style. Each bottle has been hand filled and Brewmaster Joe also roused each bottle individually to promote bottle conditioning.

Light nose and a nice balance of Brett, fruit (though none used in this beer), and tart in this fresh wild ale. I think this will age really well and only get better. Will re-review in 1-2 years!
