Mixed grain wild beer
Specialty Beer • All Grain • 36 L
The aim is to harvest wild yeast from the cherries on my sour tree in my garden. Stepping it up enough to create a starter with it. I'll ferment half the batch with that and half with Wyeast French Saison yeast. The Saison half will also get a dose of Brett Brux at bottling. The cherry half will be further split with half getting 1 kg of sour cherries per 5 litres of beer. Aging for six months before bottling with champagne yeast.
