Barrel-Aged Spring Cuvée
Our third Luminary Society release of 2022 showcases two exemplary barrels from our larger collection. We specifically selected these barrels to showcase the sophistication of flavors that are produced through mixed-culture fermentation, without the addition of fruit or spices. The base of this release is a malt-forward Belgian-style Blonde Ale, which we then blended with a richer, tarter, ruby-hued Flanders Red Ale. The blend aged for 21 months in fourth-use French Sauvignon Blanc barrels, where it underwent secondary fermentation with a mixed-culture blend of wild yeasts and bacteria. It emerged as a medium-bodied sour with fruity notes of ripe nectarine, white grape, and dried strawberries, plus supporting notes of vanilla, clove, cinnamon, and oak. Drink fresh or cellar.
