Gold Blend #45

Gold is a soft, balanced barrel aged ale wholly fermented by a diversity of yeasts and bacteria collected from native flowers from NSW.    

Blended in August 2024, a four barrel blend conditioned for 5 months before release. 

Delicately balanced, the palate is effervescent and dry with a subtle bitterness, pillowy body and developing acidity from the indigenous flora. This beer undergoes a warm primary fermentation by our house mixed culture of foraged wild yeast and naturally occurring souring bacteria in a wide vessel before being transferred into French oak barrels for maturation. Mature barrels (averaging 12 months) are then selected and blended to meet our desired character before being packaged and naturally bottle conditioned for a minimum of 3 months. Only then do we release this unspiced wild ale to be enjoyed at table with your favourite foods and best of friends.

Tasting notes by Topher
Lovely cardamom spice on the nose with sweet oak and creamy wheat backend. The palate is impressively clean and dry which really activates a whole lot of senses before dissipating really nicely. A very memorable Gold blend, as in, it really pulls me back to memories of making this beer in 2018-19... the nose especially.
