Blend Five. "Spectre Sister is a blend of two extra pale beers produced in July and August 2020. The worts were made with maize, wheat, oats and rice. They fermented in a mixture of old bourbon barrels and freshly emptied cider barrels (from Oliver's Cider and Perry, and Ross-on-Wye Cider and Perry Company). Conditioning in bottle took place through winter and spring producing an effervescent, bright and delicate saison."

"We used a grist containing 100% floor-malted Maris Otter, to try and capture the rich malty aromatics found when opening a bag from the maltings. In May 2021 we drew a wort from a six hour mash stand. The wort was not heated or boiled, and whole leaf Zappa and Bramling Cross hops were left to steep, before primary fermentation in our coolship, initiated by krausening with actively fermenting spontaneous beer.The resulting raw ale continued fermentation in one Herefordshire cider and one Scotch whisky barrel for twenty three months before blending and bottling. As with all our beers, it was bottled completely flat, with a good dose of primings to produce lively carbonation via refermentation in bottle."
