Description: In June of 2014 Matt teamed up with Italian craft beer pioneer Agostino Arioli, owner/brewmaster of Birrificio Italiano in Lurago Marinone, Italy and maker of the famous Tipopils; the beer that inspired Firestone Walker’s Pivo Pils. For this annual rite Matt and Ago each brewed a dark saison, called “La Piccola,” at their respective breweries. Ours was then sent to Buellton for the infamous Barrelworks treatment “Sichuan peppercorns were added at both breweries contributing a lively sensation. In addition, our batch was matured 12 months in French oak barrels.” The Barrelworks version of “La Piccola Di Sichuan” displays black pepper and lemon zest aromas that mingle with clove, vanilla, toasty malt and oak. Hints of pine and eucalyptus, orange and yuzu fruit linger on the palate and finish with quenching acidity and subtle Sichuan pepper tingle.
