Wild Feijoa 2016 Vintage production is underway!
This is a special beer, one of our favourite yearly seasonals and one we take great pride and care in brewing.
We take beer brewed and barrelled the previous year then add literally a tonne of fresh local feijoas. Manually cutting 1000kg of fruit is a great team building experience!
Depending on the ferment we leave it in the wine barrels for about a year then draw the fruit, blend the barrels and bottle it. The beer is unfiltered and bottle conditioned so some sediment will remain. The vintage date indicates the harvest of the fruit, rather than the brewing of the beer.
Being a “vintage” beer, each year will be a little different and we can't wait to see what this year has in store! We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
Cheers!
