"Grandma's Boy was one of the very first beers we aged in oak at Bellwoods, and its (almost) yearly release is one that garners much excitement. This year we decided to switch things up and share the unfruited version, in all its sour/funky/crisp glory -- and named it, simply, Grandma. The absence of fruit allows for more subtle flavours to shine through, showcasing the perfect intersection of acid, brett, oak, and a crisp, spritzy body. Gentle acidity balanced by refined brett character accented by notes of green tea, bosc pear, and champagne"

"Intermodal is our very first 100% spontaneously inoculated wild beer, created in a style inspired by traditional lambic producers. This particular Intermodal is our first three year blend, with spontaneously fermented beer from 2020, 2019 and 2018. We blended this year’s Intermodal for our tastes, that is to say using a larger percentage of the younger barrels than aged ones, and the results are a delectable balance of acidity and bitterness, with notes of tannic white grape, wild fermented cider, and apple baking spices."

"Ivy is a beer made with 100% regionally grown pale malted barley. In the kettle, it sees both three to four-year aged whole leaf hops, as well as pellet hops from the most recent harvest. Both are grown here in Oregon. It is the most simple of our recipes, yet one of the most complex in expression. One malt, one hop, our wonderful local water, and time. Ivy spends two years in neutral wine puncheons. We choose from these barrels a blend that is funky, but not too funky. Tart, but not too sour. Complex, but still hedonistic. Really, a blend that we are happy to make, to blend, and ultimately to share, in celebration of our new home."

"A Spontaneous Wild Ale with Cider Apples Aged in Oak Barrels for Four Years, Made with Our Friends at Baird & Dewar"

"A 50/50 blend of barrel aged Gold with fresh Gold that has just completed primary fermentation. This composition of aged and fresh beer is what we had originally intended for our Gold. It didn't end up like that though, as Gold is 100% barrel aged. We love the fresh fermentation esters and bright hop character we get in our young fermentations. This is what we focus on in beers like The International & As It Were (coming in November). But we can't hide that we also love the apparent funk, creamy mouthfeel and complex fermentation flavours of aged beer. We dont think of this blend as being a best of both worlds, but more an attempt (and this is only the first one) to marry these flavours harmoniously. One of the beers that really got me thinking about making mixed culture beers a...

"Wattle Drops 2020 is a golden Australian Wild Ale fermented wholly by wild yeast and bacteria residing on freshly picked Wattle blossoms from ‘Carawatha’ in Gerringong, NSW."

"In late 2019 we blended together a one-year-old, spontaneously fermented, beer with a barleywine-inspired wild ale that had fermented and aged upon California Flame raisins for nine months. This blend was allowed to undergo a secondary fermentation, in barrel, marrying the two beers over the course of seventeen months before being laid to rest in bottles. The resulting beer, more akin to fortified wine in its profile, was packaged still and offers notes of brown sugar, late harvest grape, luxardo cherry, and cassis. From us to you, we present A Moment’s Rest."

"Mixed fermentation wild ale with saccharomyces cervisiae yeast and brettanomyces fermented in french oak barrels which previously contained Bordeaux red wine for 18 months."

"Motley Cru is an annual oak-aged blend released each year in celebration of our anniversary. The 2021 version comprises 85% Spontaneous Koelschip Ale, 7.5% Cabernet Sauvignon fermented Wild Ale, and 7.5% Saison. In a final, congregating act, the blend was refermented with morello cherries, wild blueberries, Haskap berries, and Gamay skins."

"Motley Cru 2022 is a three year blend of spontaneous coolship beer. It was aged in neutral barrels and blended together to our taste, with the more mature beer providing classic wild fermentation characteristics and the younger beer exhibiting clean and fruity qualities. Combined, they provide the best of both worlds. In striking our preferred balance between older and newer barrels, we were also striving to create a beer that is simultaneously true to what we do and a nod to what Belgian Lambic breweries have been doing for centuries. Motley Cru 2022 boasts fruity aromas of passion fruit, damp forest floor and subtle oak. Clean pleasant acidity, reminiscent of sweet tart. Notes of green pepper and rhubarb as well."

Fruit sour, aged on Gin barrel, macerated on dried medlar, sloeberry and silverberry

"Glass is our series of beers characterised by a delicate minerally flavour, fresh kettle-hop aroma, and the addition of sea salt in the blending tank. This is our third iteration. In February, April and August 2020 we produced extra pale, minerally worts, with fresh East Kent Goldings hops. The fresh hops add wonderful aromatics (quite distinct from dry hop character) as well as acting to restrain the acidity produced in the wild fermentation. We made a blend from the four most delicate tasting barrels and added a touch of Cornish sea salt into the blending tank to give a crisp finish."

"Fruit de nos expérimentations farfelues, le brassin de cette Double Black Sour remonte déjà à février 2021. Après un passage d'un an et demi en barriques de Cognac, elle a refermenté deux mois sur une concentration de 200g par litre de cerises griottes. Le résultat n'est pas sans rappeler la célèbre forêt noire et le voltage monte gentiment à
8%."

Blend of BA Golden Sour ales

"Blend of different beers, it's the marriage between the long barrel aging world and the new hoppy wave. Wild, funky, gently sour, fruity, hoppy, refreshing."

"This beer matures for 12 months in oak barrels with the indigenous yeasts and bacteria from our vineyards. At the end of maturation, we add fresh elderflowers and a selection of white grapes we grow on Berici Hills. Unfiltered, bottle conditioned. Beer in evolution."

"Black lager with pomegranate pomace, 10 month of barrel aging in ex-wine casks, and maceration on Carignan (red grapes) pomace"

"Il y a dans chaque région de France des pionniers de la bière artisanale qui ont offert les premières rencontres émues avec ces nouveaux types de bières à nombre de futurs brasseurs. Outland et la Brasserie des Garrigues sont des références personnelles du genre. C'est donc avec fierté que nous avons réalisé ensemble cette bière acide, fermentée sur un levain issu d'une bière d'Outland (saison et lies de chenin) puis élevée 14 mois dans deux barriques précedement utilisées par Les Garriques."

"Produced in respect of Belgian ancient tradition, this beer is our 100% spontaneous fermentation in coolship, aged 24 months in oak barrels."

Season 2022-2023. Bottled on 21/03/2023. "The foundation and our essence: lambik as it should be; pure, spontaneous and complex. For six years, three consecutive brews from March 2017 fermented and matured in the same oak barrel. This fine lambik was bottled in a dark brown bottle and finished with the most excellent cork. For even longer cellar ageing."

Season 2021-2022. Bottled on 28/062/2022. "For this Strenge Winter, we brewed a full malt wort with the addition of candied sugar on the coolship. This wort was brewed on April 16th 2020. We left it for more than two years to age on three different barrels. Upon bottling, we blended with some young lambik for continued bottle fermentation, as well as a small part of reduced wort from a Nocturne brew. The weighted average age of the blend upon bottling was therefore more than 23 months."

"Brussels Beer City turns five, and celebrates with a small festival with some friends: BierCult. It has teamed up with five Brussels breweries and five people from Brussels’ beer community to brew five different collaboration beers. Nanobrasserie L’Ermitage x Colleen Rakowski: Brotherly Love. A blond beer made with barley spelt and rye, and fermented with the ‘Philly Sour’ yeast strain in stainless steel, then aged for a year in separate Pinot Noir barrels from Burgundy, one of which also still contained wine lees."
