About this beer

This is the 4th of 18 labels we have from Allagash Brewing Company. It is one of 40 wild / brett / lambic-style labels approved in November 2019. Its label was approved 11 days after it was submitted.

From the label

“This blend of spontaneously fermented beer is aged on fresh blackberries. After brewing, wild yeast finds its way into the wort as it cools overnight in our coolship—a traditional Belgian brewing vessel resembling a room-sized baking pan. The beer then ferments for over two years in oak barrels before we add blackberries. The finished beer's aroma exhibits hints of lime zest and an herbal, berry-like quality. The tart flavor evokes multiple facets of blackberry, including just-ripened fruit and rich, juicy berry.”
