Nacimiento
Firestone Walker Brewing Co.

Nacimiento is a Barrelworks-Valley Brewers Collaboration. A Flanders inspired wild ale. Ten members from the Santa Ynez Valley homebrew club communally created a Belgian inspired red ale recipe, then brewed ten separate batches individually. After primary fermentation, we gathered at our barrel room to rack it all into a French Oak barrel along with a menagerie of our proprietary blend of microflora. Patiently we waited a full year. Now it’s time to celebrate! The resulting single-barrel collaboration is delicious! A mix of malt sweetness and fruit character in the nose, lends itself beautifully to oak spice, tart cherry flavors and oak dryness.
