Mother Earth Windowpane Release:

I haven't seen a thread on this so figure I'd post it here for people who don't follow them on Facebook:


"Mother Earth Brewing is excited to announce the official release date for Blackberries, the first beer in our new limited release series, The Windowpane Series!!

Windowpane: Blackberries is a Double Wit beer, which is then fermented with blackberries and aged in a pinot noir wine barrel for three months! The finished product provides a spectacular combination of flavors that you don’t want to miss. And we’re releasing it exclusively in the Mother Earth Brewing Tap Room on Friday, May 11 at 4pm!! Due to extremely limited quantities of this special beer, this will be a BREWERY ONLY release, not be sold outside of the Mother Earth Brewing Tap Room, so make plans to be here early! Windowpane: Blackberries will be on tap at 4pm, and corked and caged 750ml bottles of this amazing nectar will be available for $20 each (limit 2 bottles per person). Classic Rock 106.5 will be broadcasting LIVE from the Tap Room from 5pm-7pm that afternoon as well.

As always, we’re expecting a spectacular turnout and lots of fun, so mark your calendar for Friday, May 11 and come experience the first taste of the spectacular Windowpane Series!"

Anyone planning on going? I might but it's a 4 hour drive each way from where I am so I'll have to give it some thought.

 

It's a double Wit, granted it might take on a slight tartness from the fruit. I'm thinking if it turns out to be a sour beer that it would be more of an accident than intentional. Just to be sure though I'll see if I can get an answer.

 

Josh Brewer (the head brewer) replied to me that if there is any tartness in the beers in this series that it will be very slight to none at all, which i take to mean only from the fruit not from any bacteria or whatnot
