"We have really enjoyed working with Len from Rayners Orchard over the last couple of years. This is a blend of barrel fermented table beer and our solera - saison puncheon. Apricots are naturally very high in acidity and so we chose a base blend with mild acidity that would really accentuate the fruit. We blended this back in February and left the beer to macerate for 6 months on 200g/L of whole apricots. We find using whole fruit allows for an extended maceration and there are some nougat/almond characters that you can only achieve through ageing on the kernels. Packaged on August 3rd 2022 and bottle conditioned for 4 months.
Fresh. ripe apricot jumps out the bottle the moment it's opened. It's very reminiscent of the day we walked up and down the rows of the orchard. Apricot pie, spice, skin, & flesh make way for a complex palate. There is an underlying funk/muskiness that makes this very well integrated. A really beautiful showcase of our barrel program and local fruit." - Casey Grieve

We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
