Tête De Cuvée 2020

Style: Barrel Aged Farmhouse Ale
ABV: 7.0%

For the first time since Blend #1, I incorporated a dash of Oude du Blé into this Vintage. While blending Vintage 2019 last year, we revisited all of previous blends and Blend #1 always had, and still has, this slight sense of air, fluff, and delicacy which had gracefully aged and developed. Even with the careful selection of our best barrels over the years, Blend #1 always held its own special place when enjoyed at the same time as the others during a vertical tasting. Being that the grass is always greener, and since these subtleties hadn't been explored in a blend since the first, I wanted to take the steps to save Oude du Blé barrels which could be explored in early 2022 for this Vintage 2020 version of Tête de Cuvée.

This select blend is as follows:
• Oude de Blé - 500L Puncheon Fermented
• Oude Fermier - 225L Chardonnay Barrel Fermented
• Experimental Saison #1 - 500L Puncheon Fermented with new Saison Yeast Strain + Side Project Cultures
• Experimental Saison #2 - 500L Puncheon Fermented with new Saison Yeast Strain + 2 Brett Strains
• Experimental Saisons #3 - 500L Puncheon Fermented with new Saison Yeast Strain + SDB Foedre Cultures

Le Saisonnier Dry Hopped

Style: Foedre Aged Farmhouse Saison
ABV: 4.0%

Dry-hopped Le Saisonnier was hopped with New Zealand Rakau and is named after the seasonal workers for which the first, old-world Saisons were originally made. We brewed this table beer with European malts and aged it in a Missouri Oak Foedre for 6 months with a blend of Missouri microflora to create a delicate, yet expressive experience from this naturally conditioned beer.
