Tasting Atrial Rubicite Blend 1 (2013, front) with Atrial Rubicite Blend 5 (2015, back)
We’ve got a number of beers planned for the future and all of them include using sour, aged beer and blending with fruits. In order to have enough of this base beer, we need to brew and age quite a bit. To get started, we’re brewing up 13 gallons, max for the current system and get things aging while we wait for the various fruit seasons to occur.
Nothing special here, just my take on the base beer that Jester King uses for their fruited sours. Enjoy!
