Last spring I noticed that there were some wild grapes growing out back. They may not be wild, I seem to remember my old man mentioning that the previous owner grew them for wine. But they have been growing wildly, and un-cared for for at least the past 15 years.
Anyways, I have been learning a lot about wild beers recently, and wonder if the cloudy (must?) on their skins are yeast, and can they be used to make an interesting beer?
Somewhat separately, would there be anything worth trying of trying an open top spontaneous fermentation next to the vine? (its like 6-8 feet tall at the peak of the summer). Or is it not big enough to be used like the orchard method?
I'm a super noob to wild beers, I hope this isn't a redundant question here, I couldn't find anything searching.
Thanks!
