Spontaneous, sour
Fermentation
Beer description
This beer’s journey first began as rich chocolatey porter but was turned on its head with the addition of a blend of souring bacteria. It was then matured with loads of freshly picked cherries from local Mount Gisborne Cherries and left for Mother Nature to work her magic in Shiraz Barrels for 15 months. The final product was then blended back into a freshly brewed porter that had been aged, yet again, on more cherries. The result is a dark beer, refreshingly sour, with big notes of cherry and a slight chocolatey body to balance the whole emotional calamity out.
