オークパンチョン（木樽）で平均3ヶ月間、複数種のセゾンを熟成させ、ブレンドしたRenee。KrushとDolcitaというモダンなホップを使用し、シトラスやストーンフルーツを思わせる鮮烈な果実味と、短期間の樽熟成が生む瑞々しい調和を表現しました。オーク樽の微細な気孔から取り込まれる酸素は、Fair Isleオリジナルのハウスイースト、特に野生酵母のブレタノマイセスを活性化させます。通常、熟成が進むほどホップの香りは影を潜め、野生酵母由来のファンキーな複雑さが増していきますが、Reneeはあえてその変化が本格化する前の、最も華やかな瞬間を捉えてパッケージングしました。今すぐ開けてホップのフルーティーな輝きを堪能するのはもちろん、冷暗所で1年ほど寝かせて、野生酵母の個性がより深まった「未来の姿」を待つのも、このビールの醍醐味です。

Introducing Renee, our newest beer in our lineup of oak aged blended farmhouse ales. A younger and hoppier version of Eldon, Renee was brewed with Krush and Dolcita hops and aged in neutral oak puncheons for an average of three months. Unlike Eldon, which is aged for over a year in oak and brewed with German noble hops, we were excited to capture more citrus and stone fruit hop flavor in this beer with new world hops and a shorter residency in oak.

Aging and then blending saison from oak vessels are some of our favorite beers to make. The relationship between time, oak, and our house mixed culture yeast strain continues to fascinate us. Oak is porous, allowing oxygen to slowly make it’s way into the beer and interact with the wild yeast cultures, particularly Brettanomyces. Over time the hop character fades and the Brett takes control, creating a funkier beer while highlighting our house culture. We were able to blend and package Renee before this happened, but that fermentation will eventually happen in the bottle and kegs.

Come by the taproom today to try it on draft! Also available in 375mL and 750mL, grab a bottle to drink now and one to cellar to one a year from now when it is more Brett forward.
