This is the 9th of 36 filings we hold from Schlafly. It is one of 22 wild / brett / lambic-style labels approved in February 2019. It cleared 65 days after it was filed. The label carries barrel-aged on the front.
From the label“Label states 'ALE BREWED WITH JUNIPER, LEMON & ORANGE PEEL AND AGED IN GIN BARRELS' — a gruit (herb-spiced ale without hops) that is soured and barrel-aged in gin barrels. No explicit sour style node printed; inferred as wild_ale/sour from 'Sour Gruit' in the name and barrel-aging copy. Closest taxonomy node is wild_ale given the mixed/sour character and gin barrel aging; kettle_sour or fruited_sour not indicated. 13.2 US gallons ≈ 49,950 ml keg.”
