Almanac Dogpatch Grand Cru, a special imperial version of the brewery’s Dogpatch Sour Ale is joining the brewery’s big bottle lineup.
Almanac Dogpatch Grand Cru is blend, of a Flanders red style sour ale with red wine grapes. The brewery took California-grown Zinfandel, Syrah, Tannat, Petite Sirah, and Tempranillo grapes and added it to a special imperial edition of their Dogpatch Sour (aged in wine barrels with cherries.) The best flavors of beer and wine are the end goal for the blended release.
Tannic red wine notes mingle with complex sour yeast flavors and French oak barrel character to create an exceptionally original new brew. Pair with beer-braised beef dishes and savor on special occasions.
Almanac Dogpatch Grand Cru is a 750 milliner bottle offerings, available exclusively in California.
