Bellwoods to launch tequila and white wine barrel-aged Berliner Weisse
Toronto, ON – Bellwoods Brewery this week announced an upcoming pair of barrel-aged Berliner Weisse matured one year in tequila and white wine barrels.
“In the dead of winter last year we filled two sets of barrels, tequila and white wine, with a sour berliner as an experiment of sorts,”writes Bellwoods. Unsure of how the flavours would mingle but excited to monitor the results, it wasn’t long before we realized that we had created something exceptional.”
Aged in tequila barrels, Warp & Weft offers subtle flavours of aloe, grapefruit, lime juice and salt mixed with sour. While Weft & Warp, matured in white wine barrels, boasts floral and peach flavours akin to Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay.
Both Warp & Weft (tequila) and Weft & Warp (white wine) will be available through Bellwood’s bottle shop in 500mL bottles beginning Thursday, January 30.
