Speciation Artisan Ales - Blackberry Incipient (2021)

Foeder Aged Solera Sour Ale with Blackberries - This golden sour wheat ale is made in a very large oak barrel called a foeder. It is called a solera blend because it is a continually blended ale - every month we remove 1/5 of its contents and top it up with freshly brewed beer. This means that a portion of every batch of Incipient we have ever brewed is in this barrel, dating back over 3 years! This creates an incredibly complex and layered base beer, to which we add a different single fruit or spice every month.
