This is the 10th of 35 filings we hold from The pH Experiment. It is one of 14 blonde / golden ale labels approved in February 2019. It cleared 71 days after it was filed. It was brewed under contract — WIDMER BROTHERS BREWING COMPANY, Craft Brew Alliance, Inc. holds the permit, which is ordinary in the register and easy to miss on a shelf.
From the label“The pH Experiment is a litmus test for new beverages. Each beverage is produced only once and tested for feedback. THIS IS A SAKE-STYLE GOLDEN ALE. It's brewed using sake yeast instead of beer yeast with koji added to emulate traditional sake fermentation. HYPOTHESIS: Will sake yeast provide appropriate dryness to a traditional golden ale? What do you think? Give your feedback at phexperiment.com and help determine the pH Experiment.”
