both brewery’s innovation skills: A wheat wine blended and fermented with white grapes from Paso Robles, and a wheat wine fermented with Kveik yeast in Kansas City.

The beers were barrel-aged in a mix of whiskey, rye, and chardonnay barrels then blended together producing a dry, light-bodied barrel-aged wheat wine. With a clean fermentation profile, the wheat, wine, whiskey, and wood all sing together.

WHAT’S A WHEAT WINE? A Wheat Wine is similar to a barleywine but differs with the inclusion of wheat in the malt bill. Wheat brings a smoother mouthfeel (thanks to added proteins) and just a hint of sweetness to the already boozy style.

Finally, we aged the beer for a full 18 months in premium wheat whiskey barrels, the perfect vessels for harmonious maturation of this wheat-centric beer. The resulting creation showcases fine cereal grain notes along with hints of sweetness and acidity from the wine grapes, all underpinned by classic whiskey undertones. Ver menos
