The blend for 2015 Vernal Dichotomous contains old beer brewed in November 2012 with Hill Country well water, barley, wheat, hops, rosemary, lavender, and spearmint, and young beer brewed in March 2015 with Hill Country well water, barley, spelt, and hops. Both the old and young beer was fermented with a mixed culture of microorganisms consisting of brewers yeast and native yeast and bacteria harvested from the air and wildflowers around our brewery. As mentioned, the young beer was refermented with kumquats. 2015 Vernal Dichotomous was blended shortly before packaging on April 20, 2015.

Hazy bright golden body and a starch white head.
Hugely herbal nose with a fruity edge. Rosemary, lavender, spearmint and the kumquats add some nice character.
Light and bubbly on the tongue. Begins with the herbal punch. Ends fruity with kumquat and citrus.
