Espiga Brave Lands

Brave Lands is a sophisticated Grape Ale that elegantly bridges Penedès viticulture and craft brewing. This wild collaboration features a primary fermentation of biodynamic Xarel·lo must and IPA wort within seasoned wine barrels using indigenous yeasts. The result is a sensory tapestry weaving white fruit and floral notes from the grapes with the herbaceous and citrus profiles of Cashmere, Simcoe, and Citra hops. A secondary fermentation utilizing Mosaic wort introduces nuanced layers of freshly baked bread and pastry. Subtle lactic and wild yeast cues add rustic complexity, while nine months of maturation ensures a silky, harmonious finish that belies its strength.
