Walk among this altar. Take from it what you need. It shall be here when you seek it. With nothing left to behold. The Altar of Acid is our newest series, focused on our 7 most epic barrel-aged sour ales, wrapped meticulously to adorn a most beautiful story. Each year we push a new boundary with our beloved cherry sour ale, and the aging of our wood cellar enabled a new level this year. Once again, we have embraced our newfound passion for nouveau-style ales, in releasing the beer just a couple of months after fruiting. And this year, our cellar was speaking to us with some mixed culture bases of farmhouse beginnings. A blend of mostly 1-year-old lower gravity red sour ales each aging in different red wine barrels makes up the base. After blending, the cuvee was re-fermented upon a mix of Michigan-grown Balaton and Montmorency cherries. This year's mix is a parfait of spiced cherry jam, cinnamon rolls, swirls of young Barbaresco and cherry handpie. - 6.0% ABV
