From the label

“Label explicitly states 'SOUR ALE AGED IN OAK BARRELS WITH LAVENDER & HONEY' — a sour ale with non-fruit adjuncts (lavender, honey) aged in barrels. The barrel-aging and sour designation are explicit. Lavender and honey are specialty adjuncts that define the character alongside the sour base, placing this in fruited_sour (broadly: sour with added botanicals/adjuncts) with barrel-aged modifier. ABV 5.8% by vol. confirmed on label. This is a keg collar (round format, tap-handle information, kegging volumes listed: 15.5 GAL, 13.2 GAL, 5.16 GAL). Producer: Almanac Beer Co., 651B W. Tower Ave., Alameda, CA 94501 — self-produced (no 'for' language, brand and producer are the same entity).”
