It earned the nickname “Champagne of the North” from Napoleon’s troops.This is our interpretation of a berliner weisse.Brewed with 100% Australian grown grains.Floor malted - pilsner & wheat from House of Malt (VIC). Australian rolled rye & oats. Hopped lightly w/ Saaz (CZ).Fermented in two neutral barriques for 5 months with a blend of saccharomyces, lactobacillus & brettanomyces strains. This is a 50/50 blend of both those barrels.Unfiltered and naturally conditioned.Packaged on March 21st 2022 and can conditioned for 8 months.Aroma's of lemon, hay & sourdough.
