The Barrel Shepherd The Afterlife - Four Whites
REGION: Wollongong, NSW
SIZE: 750ml / ABV: 6.1%
A dry saison-style beer rested on the pressings of four white grape varieties - vermetino, zibibbo, pinot gris & chardonnay. Reflects both the crisp character of a French saison beer, and fruity floral notes of the grape varietals sourced from Aristotelis Ke Anthoula (formerly Ari's Natural Wine). Aged for 11 months, four in French oak.
