Sour Belgian-Style Dubbel Aged on Figs

Our final Luminary release of 2020 is a sour Belgian-Style Dubbel, aged for 18 months on just over 100 lbs of fig. This beer began as our classic Belgian-Style Dubbel “Milou,” originally brewed in December 2018 with rich caramel malts and a Belgian Abbey yeast. This ale was then transferred to second use Hungarian Oak barrels inoculated with our house sour culture. Eighteen months later, it emerged as a rich, complex, and undeniably tart ale with prominent notes of tart citrus and peach rings, and subtler notes of toffee, caramel, and winter spices. Malt meets sour, this unique ale is a delightful winter sipper.
