LUTIN
BARREL AGED WILD ALE
A word of warning! If you notice a glass of beer lying about the brewery don’t touch it, as it may have been left for the resident Lutin. This gnome-like guardian does odd jobs and keeps an eye on the fermentations overnight in exchange for beer and a warm spot to sleep by the boiler. If upset, he will resort to mischief, hiding tools, or even causing the beer to spoil! So leave that beer where it is, and enjoy a glass of this bright & complex, tart wild ale with new appreciation for all who made it.

BREWER’S NOTES
This dry bright Saison was aged in white wine barrels with a unique Brettanomyces yeast culture. The result is a beer, with flavours reminiscent of white grape, bright fruit, and lemon/lime. This tart saison is complex without being heavy.
