We blended barrels of one year old lambic-inspired base beer, and then added black limes that we’re grown and processed in Highland Park. Big earthy lime character comes through in the aroma and flavor in a very unique way, balancing perfectly with the funk and acidity of the underlying beer. This is why we’re here.

T: Moderate lime flavor upfront, followed by moderate funk and sourness.
M: Medium bodied with a soft mouth-feel.
O: Solid; the beer has a great array of aromas and flavors, but could be even better with a little less brett funk and cleaner sourness.
