Nettles | Fox Farm Brewery
ABV: 5.5%
Style: Farmhouse Ale - Other
Actively Produced
Description: The initial seed of inspiration for this beer was planted by our friend Farmer Digga of Hunts Brook Farm (Waterford, CT). His resourcefulness and curiosity have made a mark on several of our beers and when he encouraged us to pursue this one (generously providing the stinging nettles themselves) we knew to take it seriously. There’s a long, humble history, particularly in Britain and Ireland, of putting nettles to culinary use - including in the small batch production of a refreshing fermented beverage. Complimenting the lively nature of the plant we added fresh ginger from Wellstone Farm (Higganum, CT) and fresh yuzu from Bhumi Growers (Florence, NJ) - two equally passionate, knowledgeable, and uncompromising farmers. The result is a bright and herbal summertime quencher - effervescent both figuratively and literally.
