BREWER’S NOTES
Postscript was created as a single barrel experiment to try to capture the essence of a whisky sour through wild fermentation and barrel aging. The base beer was fermented and soured with a multi-culture harvested from the dregs of one of our favorite Lambic bottles. Aged for 6 months in a Buffalo Trace bourbon barrel, rich notes of whisky, vanilla and oak slowly infused into the beer. Black limes were crushed and soaked in the barrel to add bright lime flavour and aroma, and round out the cocktail-like character.
