Bourgeois is a Golden Sour Ale, fermented in oak barrels and our first barrel-aged release.

Primary souring took place in steel before being racked into a mix of French Oak, Red & White wine barrels for fermentation. It was pitched with a mixed culture of wild yeast and bacteria harvested and grown-up from a selection of our favourite Sour Beers.

The 6 barrels we used each showed a range of distinct unique characteristics that we selectively blended into two batches (Blend One and Two) to achieve a sense of balance and quality.

The result is two deeply sour Golden ales with their own distinctive intricacies.

 

Ponderer is our second barrel-aged release.

It’s a heavy imperial stout aged in a selection of Scottish whisky barrels for 20 months. Three of the best barrels were selected for their contrasting characteristics, creating a blend championing intense aromas of Liquorice, Blackberry and Blackcurrant – with rich chocolate and peated whisky coming into play as the beer warms.
