Farmhouse Ale Co-Fermented With Blanc Du Bois & Gewurztraminer | Jester King Brewery

ABV: 6.4%
Style: Fruit Beer
Description: This fermentation blurs the lines between wine and beer by simultaneously fermenting grapes and grain. We took whole cluster Blanc du Bois grapes from the Texas Hill Country, foot stomped them to combine the microbes on the skin of the grapes with the juice, then allowed an ambient fermentation with native yeast to begin. We then added unfermented beer brewed with well water, local grain, and a blend of fresh and aged hops, which fermented naturally with the yeast from the grapes. Shortly thereafter, we added Gewurztraminer from Willamette Valley, Oregon to the fermentation as well. We let the blend ferment to dryness in stainless steel 100% naturally without the introduction of any commercial yeasts or other cultures.
