From Lora Brewing
In Liminal Forms is a mixed culture beer made with dehydrated organic apples and conditioned in bottle with apple molasses. 

6.0% ABV

223 x 750ml bottles available 

The beers which compose In Liminal Forms were first brewed in January 2021 and February of 2021.

January 2021's brew consisted of organic Motueka hops, organic pale Schooner barley, organic raw wheat and was both fermented and allowed to mature in a 500 litre puncheon.

February 2021's brew featured a more hop focused recipe and as such used a heavy hand of organic Motueka hops, organic pale Schooner barley and organic malted wheat and was similarly allowed to ferment and mature in a 500 litre puncheon. 

In July 2021 these beers were blended together in a roughly 75/25 ratio respectively and combined with organic apple slices dehydrated after an extended sweating period. The beer and apple slices were allowed to undergo another fermentation as the apples rehydrated in the beer and their sugars became available to the microorganisms within the barrel. After two additional months in barrel the extended fermentation had slowed and the beer was separated from the apples for packaging. The beer was taken to bottle in September 2021 and naturally carbonated and conditioned with an apple molasses made in June using apples juiced from the same harvest of fruit used in the steeping. 

Tasting Notes - Dried pome fruits, honeysuckle, mountain flowers, fermented pineapple, honeycomb, and fresh snow. As the beer warms, notes of candied apple, honey and toffee come to the stage. A sweet mid palate leads to a refreshing dry finish. 

Production Notes - The brewing process for our beers involves taking a more hands off approach than typically used. There were no process or brewing aids used outside of a carbon water filter to remove chlorine from the water. No acid or acidulated malt for pH adjustment, brewing salts, enzymes, yeast nutrients, fining agents, antifoams, filtration, or extracts were added or used in making this beer. Additionally, we have utilized a hot sparge to intentionally pull tannins from the grains so they may provide some structure and texture into the resulting beers.

Storage - Beer isn't typically a fan of sunlight and as such we recommend you store our beers in a cool and dark environment. Not only will this help protect the beer inside, but it will also preserve the labels as well (see below). 

When/how to drink - This beer has been well aged and we feel is ready to drink now! However, we would expect it to age well for up to 3 years if you'd like to see how it transforms over time.

We recommend allowing the bottle to chill upright for 24 hours before opening and allowing yourself time to sit with the beer as the flavors and aromas will evolve over an hour or two as it opens and warms. This beer in particular will benefit from a warmer serving temperature, around 20C. This all being said, enjoy the beer whenever and however you like, with friends and family or by yourself. It's more important to us for you to enjoy the beer in a situation that suits you than to get caught up on the finicky details! :)

Labels - We’ve painted our labels with natural pigments gathered from landscapes around New South Wales. As such each bottle is unique and these natural hues may change slightly over time, much like the evolution of the beer inside.
