Civil Disobedience Blend 35 • Edward and Harlan

The holiday season is truly upon us! Snow on the slopes and flurries in the air, we are buoyed by the energy of a grateful Thanksgiving. For this coming week, we will offer a new emergence within our Civil Disobedience collection, Blend 35, as well as freshly packaged drafts and cans of Edward and Harlan available for takeaway. Stay tuned Monday for an announcement for an upcoming opportunity for another home delivery!

Civil Disobedience Blend 35

This, the thirty-fifth entry in our blended barrel-aged Farmstead® ale collection spans more than five years and is comprised of wine barrel-aged Anna and Arthur from late summer 2017 that rested in barrels whose lineage includes Elaborative Five, Flora, Ann, and Art. This presentation has undertaken an unhurried journey from brew day to assembly to glass, traversing more than four years of conditioning in the bottle prior to release. Given the fascinating progression of the blend over the course of these four years in bottle—and its current Anna-forward presentation—we anticipate that this blend has a long road of positive expression for the next 5 (or more) years. We have witnessed this beer’s mysterious evolution, nonplussed by the significant length of time required for its transition from our optimistically projected blend to a period of ambiguity. A discourse between its components ensued in bottle, with neither taking a leading role for more than two years. Now, at four years, its current manifestation exhibits honeyed aromatics, vibrant mid-palate, and a balance of integrated acidity, texture, and weight.

We can now present to you another blended experience of time, place, and patience.
