Civil Disobedience Blend 39


Blended Barrel-Aged Farmstead® Ale

Our Civil Disobedience series is an act of optimism and hopeful curation. As we follow each barrel—gauging various trajectories and arcs—patterns emerge. Some barrels become their namesake’s peak expression; others terminate in perceptible failure, destined for reintegration into our fields—perhaps becoming beer again far down the water table chain. A third barrel category seeks accompaniment within a sympathetic chorus and often—upon curated blending with like-directed selections—undertakes a secondary journey of integration and co-development.

This, the thirty-ninth entry in our blended barrel-aged Farmstead® ale collection, spans more than eight years and is comprised of wine barrel-aged Arthur and Samuel from Spring of 2017, Anna from late Autumn 2017, and a few additional selected threads from early 2018. The barrel lineage for this assembly includes Citrus Coolship, Sankt, What is Enlightenment?, and Ann.

Its unhurried journey from brew day to assembly to glass traverses nearly six years of conditioning in the bottle prior to release. Observing this blend over the past six years in bottle, we anticipate that it will continue to exhibit a positive expression for the next 5 (or more) years; its current manifestation displays a delightful balance of integrated acidity, texture, and weight.
