Beer Profile
Garlands
Garlands is a Berliner Weisse style sour brewed with 100% New York State grain and hops. This 5% ABV ale undergoes traditional kettle souring before fermentation with Kölsch yeast, resulting in a crisp, lively acidity balanced by a subtle malt sweetness. The beer presents a bright, tart character complemented by variations featuring locally foraged sweet woodruff, which adds delicate herbal notes, or blackberry syrup, lending a gentle fruitiness. Light-bodied with a refreshing effervescence, Garlands showcases a clean finish, making it a nuanced example of the Berliner Weisse style with a local twist.
