About this beer
This is the 1st of 14 labels we have from The Referend Bier Blendery. It is one of 7 wild / brett / lambic-style labels approved in January 2019. Its label was approved 68 days after it was submitted. The label carries barrel-aged, fruited on the front.
From the label“Le mur (Rum Barrel-Aged) is our blackberry spontaneously fermented golden ale aged in rum barrels. Bottled unblended from a single rum barrel comprised of 1.5-year-old golden ale refermented with fresh, whole, ripe to overripe NJ blackberries. More a story of exceptional fruit than barrel character, these particular berries were grown with care at Happy Valley Berry Farm in South Jersey and macerated for ten weeks in the barrel. "But time is only another liar, so go along the wall a little further: if blackberries prove bitter there'll be mushrooms" -William Carlos Williams”
