Golden Brett

Ale Aged in Oak Foudres Fermented with Brettanomyces

Notes of citrus, apricot, and bread crust all make an appearance in this mildly tart, golden-colored beer. We brew Golden Brett with Victory, 2-row, oats, and red wheat malt before fermenting it with our house strain of Brettanomyces yeast—first in stainless, then in an 800-gallon oak foudre. After hopping lightly with Northern Brewer and Simcoe, we dry hop it with Simcoe again prior to bottling. This beer is a golden example of what our local strain of Brettanomyces can do.

Sour Beers

Tartness can be found in a wide variety of beers—and can be added to beers in a wide variety of ways. You’ll find sourness in beer from souring bacteria, from fresh fruit, and sometimes from wild microflora floating in the Maine air.
