An amber-style ale fermented in charred American oak barrels. Su Legno Primo (first) is the first beer we tinkered with. Experimenting with what would work as beer entirely fermented in oak barrels. We honed our process entirely on the back of this beer and made many iterations before deciding that 6% was the perfect ABV for barrel fermented ales, providing body to support the oak without alcohol warming. Ale, crystal and roast malts were combined in different percentages over many recipes until landing on what we think is the perfect combination, that works with the charred American Oak without being too rich or intensely malty. We discovered that crystal and darker base malts mix well with our process and our barrels!
Welcome to Su Legno ‘On Wood in Italian.’ Where science, practical brewing and craftsmanship converge to create exceptional barrel-fermented ales. Since 2022, we have been dedicated to brewing unique, interesting and delicious barrel fermented ales. We combine modern brewing science with techniques from the past. All of our beers are fermented in charred American oak barrels, without refrigeration, for a short duration of time before undergoing a secondary fermentation in bottle.
One aspect that sets us apart is our devotion to barrel fermentation. We believe that the marriage of beer, charred wood, horizontal fermentation and no refrigeration adds depth, complexity, and character to our beer. The combination of these factors imparts its unique influence, creating complexity in the final product. Each recipe is designed with drinkability at the front of mind and includes barrels as an ingredient.
