We teamed up with our friends at Foeder Crafters to build a custom oak tank for this collaboration. A golden ale matured for over a year in our American oak foeder with wild yeasts and bacteria before conditioning on passion fruit and peaches.

Glory be, I thank thee @Buck89
Poured into Yazoo tulip.
A radiant, effervescent swirl of peach tinged gold swirls in my glass. Turbid and somewhat opaque. But beautiful and bright. The fizz announces the rushing rise of sparkling foam. Yes, I can hear it. It rises assertively, then all of the bubbles explode as they near the rim of the glass. Like fireworks, bright & beautiful, then gone in a flash. Within about 30 seconds there is zero evidence that this drink ever had a head. A few small floaties sink to the bottom. Zero lacing.
Smell came forth strong. Peach, vinegar, dry white wine, hints of wet hay, and a wet oak note.
Taste is sour and fruity. Sour grabs your attention, but not by the collar. Coating the tongue, and working back to the throat, it give you that pucker and click. The click of the tongue against the sides of your gums and epiglottis. Then as I bring a little air in, the flavor taps the brakes just a tad on the sour, and allows the peach notes to shine. Sill sour, but a more fruity sour. Peach with a hint of lemon. God, I love peach.
No carbonation is visible, but it still feels like there is some. A slightly slick finish that hangs on for a good long time.
Overall, this one is bold. Not for somebody who just dabbles with sours. But i find so many great things going on here, that I'd hit this repeatedly if I could.

Poured into an ETF glass. Very hazy/mildly turbid golden yellow color with a modest white head. The foam settled quickly, leaving scant lacing. Great aroma: oak, vanilla, peaches, lemons, and passion fruit. Puckeringly sour up front. The peaches and passion fruit shine through, balanced with oak and some sticky funk. A crisp lemony finish. Really nice!
