Jester King Radiolaria is a new collaboration with Chicago, Illinois based Off Color Brewing. The resulting beer, as the label states, is a “conflagration of wild yeasts.”
Jester King travelled to Chicago with a blend of Texas yeast and bacteria, and combined it with Off Color’s house microbes. The base beer is loosely based on Off Color’s Apex Predator, a farmhouse ale. The blend of both breweries funky mixed cultures give Jester King Radiolaria is unique flavor profile.
Jester King Off Color Radiolaria will be available in the Chicago area. Due to restrictive Texas laws, the beer will not be available in Texas.
