From our friends at Black Project Spontaneous & Wild Ales in Denver, CO
TWR FLWR
This spontaneous ale begins as most all of our beer does - it cools overnight in the coolship and is immediately transferred to neutral French oak where it ages for a minimum of 6 months to a year. Using a blend of three barrels that were filled last Fall, we added a light amount of hops for highlighting followed by blending in less than 1% of 3-year spontaneous beer aged on Montmorency and Balaton cherries. We were inspired by hints of fresh tilled soil, sweet grass and wild flowers in our tasting that every layer of this blend was thoughtfully applied to amplify those flavors created through our natural microbe cultures of Denver.

ABV: 5.5%
Grain Bill
Raw Wheat, Unmalted Barley
Hops
Styrian Goldings, Willamette (Whole Leaf, Aged)
Yeast Profile
Spontaneous
Cooled overnight in coolship and transferred to oak
We believe yeast should and does have all the flavor punch that grain and hops have in beer, yet has often been overlooked as a primary flavor contributor. We believe in expressive, “fermentation first” beers and look to them for inspiration as well as for patio-hang- time.
