Hey all,
Yes it was time to put on the Aged Flanders Blend. This is another very limited beer where we are not bottling or selling growlers. So you are going to have to come in to the P-Brew to try some of this. This is a blend of this years Flanders Red with a three year old Old Brun, two year old Flanders Red and a one year old Flanders Red. All the aged beers have the addition of a lambic yeast strain to at the start of the aging cycle. Plus we added some tart cherries. It is as close as we could come to making a true Kreik Lambic. Most definitely worth a try.
As i mentioned earlier it is a very limited amount, so I might not wait until the weekend to come give it a try. Because like the Black IPA it might go very quickly.
Cheers,
Tyler
PS On the Black IPA train of thought. Since the small amount I made when Tod was on vacation went over so well, we are going to brew a full batch of it on Friday.

Awesome news about the Black IPA. Can't wait. Any plans on brewing the Dunkelweizen or Double Wit again any time soon?
ReplyDeleteThis beer is terrible, definitely needs a few more days to age before I would even consider drinking it again. Your best bet is to wait and not hurry in to try it.
ReplyDeleteI love the sour styles of beer. This one in particular has a great bite to it with a complexity that makes it worth your while to take your time and savor it. It reminds me a lot of a 2007 Cantillon Kriek I had recently, but with a more crisp front and a more aggresive nose. If you enjoy sours you'll love it, if not, buy some mutual funds. It's not the smoothest beer you've ever had, but it's not supposed to be.
ReplyDeleteGeez Aaron, next time I'll put my sarcastic responses in all italics or something. Did you really think I was serious that a blending that included a 3-year old beer needed a few more days to age? ;)
ReplyDeleteFunny haha. 3 years and counting... "Put it back in the cellar with the mutual fund gimp."
