Collaboration with Ex Novo Brewing
A barrel aged, dry hopped, Brettanomyces spiked Saison is best brewed with friends. In this case, our friends from Ex Novo Brewing joined us to collaborate on this very special bottle release. We began by brewing a Saison with hard, red, Colorado wheat then fermented it with the French Saison strain. It then underwent aging in barrels with two strains of Brettanomyces before being dry hopped with Southern Passion hops. Bottled and conditioned to traditional, very high, Saison carbonation levels, this beer will be fruity and hoppy now and will develop more funky, Brett character as it ages.

Beautiful-appearing beer. Gold color with a thick white head that lasts forever. Plenty of lace.
Fruity, hoppy, funky aroma.
Ditto for the taste.
Lingering funk in the mouth.
Very nice!
