Allright, so let me just start by saying a couple of things. If it weren't for Russian River Brewing Company, I would never ever ever think of making this beer. I have a friend that took me there about three years ago and I had Deification which was (I would think) a kind of lead up to Consecration because it was a barrel aged sour on Plucots. So I have to thank my friend as well for introducing me.
Then with the terrible thread that nobody should read about some guys across the country that decided to clone Consecration. They actually put it into my head to go forward with making an insane quantity of beer. I am not even going to link the thread mentioned because it is far too long and full of BS that if you read it, it will officially dumb you down. You will then become like them and start talking about which farm animals you really want to take out on a friday night. Alright, here is the thread.
So this is still in the design stage, so go with me here.
I sat down yesterday with a good friend that makes some sweet beers. He tasted me on a couple of barrel aged beers he has going and also on a sour that just bottled. It was fantastic! 6% abv, summery, refreshing, sour, complex and beautiful. We chatted about style, barrels to use, different bugs, recipes and technique. We haven't decided on a recipe yet, but will have one in the next week hopefully or so.
