Bière de Garde

7.2% ABV

A loosely defined farmhouse ale, traditionally brewed in Northern France. Ours draws deeply on the rustic origins of the style - utilizing oak casks as the fermentation vessels and a mix of single-celled organisms for fermentation. Fruity and reminiscent of strawberries, peaches, and rhubarb on the nose. A complex delivery of those aromas carries to the palate, while hints of oak come forward. Dry and refreshing, with a sweet, tangy acidity on the finish. Bottled conditioned with Brett Lambicus to ensure the keeping quality of the beer.
