Jester King Brewery Soul Conduit

5.2% Table Beer aged in Old Tom Gin Barrels with Lime Zest, Lime Juice & Basil

750ml Bottle

Soul Conduit is our farmhouse table beer aged in Old Tom Gin barrels previously housing Jester King Viking Metal. After barrel-aging, we refermented the beer with lime zest, lime juice, and fresh basil. The finished beer has subtle smoked character with a nice herbal depth. We get notes of juniper, pine, Meyer lemon, lime leaf, backed up by a subtle salinity and smoke. We like to think of Soul Conduit as our farmhouse G&T. 5.2% abv. 

A table beer aged in gin barrels and refermented with dried makrut limes and thyme! Soul Conduit began when our (at the time) Head Brewer Averie Swanson decided to put our Le Petit Prince Farmhouse Table Beer into the Old Tom gin barrels that previously held Jester King Viking Metal. Averie writes, "I originally wanted to put Le Petit Prince into the gin barrels that were emptied for last year's Viking Metal, hoping the beer would pick up a bit of the smoke character left in the barrel, as a bit of an homage to Schlenkerla Helles." As the beer matured, Averie observed that not only did the beer pickup smokiness, but botanical character as well. "Over time the beer picked up not just the smoke but also quite a bit of the gin botanicals and has an awesome smokey fullness, juniper gin notes and a crazy tonic-like bitterness. Thus, the G&Teeter was born!"
