TASTING NOTES

A funky wit beer brewed with green coriander and tangerine peel, fermented with an isolate from our native blueberry skin mixed culture. A slightly higher hopping of Grungiest lends a flo- ral peach note and helps to keep acidity in check. Floral funk with notes of blueberry pie, white grape juice, brunch time mimosas, and jasmine tea and a pillowy softness from a grist of almost 50% unmalted wheat.

SECRET TECHNIQUES

Critters is part of a larger project of banking, isolating, and further exploring wild cultures harvested directly from native plants, fruits, and similar sources. This native yeast was carefully harvested from the delicate skins of blueberries found on a small farm near Holland, Michigan. After having the yeast genetically sequenced, we discovered this strain has about 90% Brettanomy- ces yeast lineage explaining it’s unique fermentation profile.
