La Niña Fresa

Marrying two distinct wild yeast fermentation traditions – Tepache from Mexico and Lambic style beer fermentation, this brew aims to blur conventional barriers. Starting with the brewery’s foeder aged sour ale, we co-fermented it with fresh pineapples – pulp, rind and all. Native yeast on the fruit combined with wild strains used in the brewery’s sour beer program complement the base fruitiness with funk and complexity. Extensive ageing in Chardonnay barrels further imparts notes of vanilla and coconut lending it pleasing depth of flavor, completed with a light Tepache-inspired nuance of cinnamon. Playfully dubbed La Niña Fresa, this limited-edition tepache inspired wild ale is sure to please the fussiest of palates. Show Less
