Fortress Of Sourtude
Wild Heaven Beer

Fortress of Sourtude is a mixed fermentation ale made with nearly 80 pounds of peaches per barrel. For primary fermentation we used Orchard Brettanomyces. After the peaches were added we allowed multiple native Georgia lactobacillus strains that were cultured from the peach skins to further sour the beer to give it a wonderful, clean tartness. The ridiculous amount of peaches that we used (2000 pounds) contributed amazing aromatics and flavor that are a perfect accompaniment to the wild microflora that adds depth and complexity.
