Imaginal Phase

Описание

Rye Saison - With a seasonally appropriate warm and rustic rye flavour, this is our ode to traditional belgian style farmhouse brewing. Based on a classic saison, our twist is that we dose the beer with brettanomyces yeast strains on bottling day. This beer then undergoes a metamorphosis with the new yeast protecting the existing hop flavours while it adds its own wild and rustic expression over time. A reference to the final stage of metamorphosis in butterflies, the name “Imaginal Phase” suits this natural, evolving beer perfectly. With a grain bill of malted barley, lots of unmalted rye and a touch of unmalted oats it has plenty of body despite finishing very dry. We kettle-hopped generously with Styrian Goldings and lightly dry-hopped with a carefully selected blend of Czech Saaz, German Tettnanger, and New Zealand Motueka. This combination brings out the best of the spicy and herbal flavours of old world hops.
