Studio Oedipus No. 22
The worlds of wine and beer collide in this North Amsterdam collaboration with our neighbours Chateau. They gave us a few hundred kilos of Macabeu grapes left over from their wine pressing which we macerated with wild yeasts in our white ale Offline. After a few months we blended this wine/beer hybrid with Vogelen (our Berliner Weisse) and Offline aged in Pinot Blanc barrels for nine and three months respectively. The extra time that Vogelen spent refermenting created deep oaky tones that combine with the grapes, funky yeast flavour and Offline’s softer, floral notes to produce a balanced fruity brew.
