Cervino Riesling | Funk Factory Geuzeria
ABV: 8.0%
Style: Grape Ale - Other
Actively Produced
Description: Cervino is a project that further blurs the line between beer and wine. For this iteration, we selected seven Méthode Traditionnelle barrels and blended them with freshly pressed Riesling grape juice sourced by our friends at Wollersheim Winery, allowing a natural refermentation to occur with the spontaneous yeast and bacteria contributed by the beer. Although Riesling wine is rarely aged in oak, the barrel-aged beer provides a welcome spicy and saccharine counterpoint to the crisp, underripe nectarine flavors lended by the grapes to capitalize on the best of both worlds.
