Cuvée De Bois | La Sirène Brewing
ABV: 6.2%
Style: Farmhouse Ale - Saison
Actively Produced
Description: Barrel Aged Wild Ale with Chardonnay - Cuvée De Bois started life out as our Cuvée which began as an open fermented Farmhouse Ale made in our house style, that was co-fermented with Victorian "free run" Chardonnay and left to naturally sour for an extended period. Cuvée evolved to become Cuvée De Bois when we felt the finished beer needed some oude (old) Saison and French oak characters to mellow out the vibrancy of the chardonnay free run and give this ale some length. So to the young fermented beer, we blended 2 x selected barriques of 2013 & 2014 Saison that had been barrel fermented and aged on chardonnay lees a modern day ‘Bière De Coupage’ technique where young and old beer is blended. Cuvée De Bois was laid on it's side to mature and naturally carbonate using indigenous flora for the last 8 months.
