Styrian style grape ale?
Grape ales are a relatively young style of beer and were initially brewed in Italy and South Tyrol. Since Southeast Styria is also a wine country, we brewed this beer “hybrid?! 😉” . We just made it Styrian style. The beer style surprises with a certain complexity and freshness. The taste is of course influenced by the grape variety used.
Barrel aged
We always brew according to the brewing calendar from October to the end of February. During this time, the beers are placed in the barrels and then have time to develop. In barriques without us influencing the temperatures or anything else. However, those who already work quite a bit are the wild yeasts that surround our barrel cellar, live in it and enrich it with life.
Raw materials
A Lambic is brewed as the basic recipe for our Grape Ale. Depending on the recipe, grape must or grapes are either cooked or added during fermentation and maturing.
Yihaaa!
Carefuy, it is a brett?! Brettanomyces bruxellensis, a wild yeast in combination with the equally wild yeasts of the grapes, gives the Grape Ale a fantastic complexity in taste on the journey.
It's a funky ride
---
This beer was carefully crafted, cellared, blended, and bottled by four close friends. Fermented and aged in used biodynamic wine oak barrels, its complexity comes from wild yeast and bacteria from both the beer and wine worlds. The blend combines beer brewed and fermented with fresh biodynamic Isabella grape juice from 2020, 2021, and 2022. In the summer of 2023, the beer was expertly blended and then further matured in the bottle, resting until its release in late autumn 2024.
