Albus is our historic interpretation of a Belgian white ale brewed with copious amounts of malted & unmalted wheat along with ginger root, chamomile and lemon balm. It is fermented using saccharomyces and lactobaccilus.

Albus Singularis is a special edition matured in an oak barrel. Batch #1 was matured for over 4 months in a Ransom Spirits Pinot Noir/Gin barrel.

Really impressive. You can appreciate the witbier body. Good lacing. Slight gin nose. Quenching tartness and super dry. Smoothness throughout which leads to extended drinking.

A- Hazy straw yellow body, two finger white head, nice retention time in the glass, thin collar, not much lacing.

S- Crisp lemon zest, oak, juniper, tart lactobacillus, minerals, bread. Quite tart and complex. Not much of that distinctive Belgian yeast strain due to all of the other components.

F- Lemon zest, wheat, musty oak, dry juniper, lacto, mineral crackery sweetness. A little bit more of the Belgian yeast spice flavours come out here rather than in the nose.

M- Medium bodied, nice effervescence. Not difficult to drink. Good carbonation, refreshing.

O- Very complex flavour profile in a witbier. Tasty, easy to drink and refreshing.

Tart, lemon, minerally. Maybe some botanicals on the back end. Pinot barrels not really present, but maybe it is, who knows. Everything seems very well integrated. Solid.
