Wildflower Brewing Common Ground Autumn Ale

Common Ground Autumn Ale: Harvest 2020 is an ale made by fermenting wort by and with the skins of Greco grapes from the 2020 harvest from our very good friends Dane and Hannah of Momento Mori. Made without addition of our house culture.    

This ale was made back in 2020 with the skins of Greco grapes which spent 10 months macerating to make MM's 'Give up the Ghost' 2020. After the skins were lightly pressed and sent to us, we pitched our Gold wort on top of them and allowed the resident yeast to commence and complete the beer fermentation. The beer and skins soaked together for 8 months before bottling in June 2021 and naturally conditioning through refermentation before release. 

Meesh's tasting notes - Pours a light straw, with aromas of melon, peach and pineapple bursting out of the glass. Salinity is present on the nose alongside a bright vinous note. It is round and full on the palate, with direct acidity and a moreish grippy, salty finish. There's a note of skinsy spiciness there as well. Overall it's bringing the pineapple juice vibes. Grab the oysters. - Wildflower Brewing
