On brewday we combined Murphy & Rude Virginia Pils, Greater Richmond Grains Organic Raw Wheat, and Greenmont Hopworks Crystal hops to produce a rustic Saison wort. That wort then underwent primary fermentation inside two wine barrels from our friends at Blenheim Vineyards. It was then conditioned for seven months, in those barrels, before being packaged with one of our favorite isolates of Brettanomyces bruxellensis. It was then given an additional 11 months in kegs and bottles for the Brett to develop and naturally carbonate.

Released June 2024; drank 8/4/24 @ Pokemon Communion.

Cloudy orange/yellow appearance.

An even pour yielded a nice white head; minimal lacing remained.

Lemon & wood notes in the nose.

Medium mouthfeel.

Lemon flavor up front; wood dryness on the finish.

Balanced & tasty.
