Not sure what this barrel will become, but figured you guys would be interested.
Did anyone try one of their bottles of the Muscat or Recolte? I'm intrigued to hear peoples' thoughts.
Mine are sitting in my beer fridge staring at me and begging me to drink them. I got more of the Recolte, so I think I'll be cracking open one of those this weekend.
I'm pretty sure they don't, but I just learned that Avery's main barrel dude (Andy) is going to be giving the talk at my homebrew club meeting next month, so I'll ask him!Waylit said:Does Avery use WLP655 for all their sour beers?
I've heard good things about Cascade Brewing, but have never had a chance to try them. I assume you tried that one at their brewery, since they don't make it to Denver, right?

I tried them. The muscat was good. Dry with tight bubbles and a little brett(?) kick at the end. I was less impressed with Recolte. It tasted a lot like grapes (wine), but hopefully with some age the yeast will shine a little more.
Bummer, I ended up getting more of The Recolte. Not really a bummer of course, I'll let them age and see what happens, but still...
