Albion | Bellwether Brewing Company
ABV: 8.2%
Style: Gruit / Ancient Herbed Ale
Actively Produced
Description: Albion is the oldest name on record for the island of Great Britain. This beer aims to reflect that legend. Being brewed with heather and no hops gives this beer little-to-no perceived bitterness with a burst of floral, almost lavender-mint, bouquet. Late additions of heather, that are wild-harvested and imported from Scotland, introduce microbes that sour the beer. Peated malt provides a bit of smoke that rounds out this complex ale of antiquity.
