This, the thirty-ninth entry in our blended barrel-aged Farmstead® ale collection, spans more than eight years and is comprised of wine barrel-aged Arthur and Samuel from Spring of 2017, Anna from late Autumn 2017, and a few additional selected threads from early 2018. The barrel lineage for this assembly includes Citrus Coolship, Sankt, What is Enlightenment?, and Ann.
Its unhurried journey from brew day to assembly to glass traverses nearly six years of conditioning in the bottle prior to release. Observing this blend over the past six years in bottle, we anticipate that it will continue to exhibit a positive expression for the next 5 (or more) years; its current manifestation displays a delightful balance of integrated acidity

Slightly foggy burnt gold with a short, fuzzy off-white head.
Vibrant cultures meet an array of oaky threads, especially on the nose. Citrusy and tropical but also mature and gently funky.
On the palate, acid nears balsamic while deftly avoiding acetic. Overripe peach, even pineapple, come along a salivating crispness. This finish is semi-dry yet juicy, emulating mandarin oranges and apricot. At times I get a hint of damp biscuit in the background.
