Пиво Blanc de Blancs (Vintage 2020) - Side Project Brewing

Blanc de Blancs is our Bière de Champagne that was fermented and aged in Missouri Oak Chardonnay barrels with Missouri Vignoles Grapes from our friends at Noboleis Vineyards in the Augusta AVA. The depth and complexities were developed from the native microflora that was present on the local grape skins in which the beer was aged on for 18 months before being naturally conditioned in the bottle. Blanc de Blancs will now be 'vintage' dated to represent the year in which the grapes were grown, just as a wine is. For this 2020 vintage, we accomplished our intentions in developing a true wine/beer hybrid. A beer in which the acidity represents that of the wine first and of the native culture second.
