Сидр Ninkasi Barrel Aged - The Wild Beer Co

Ninkasi is our celebratory beer brewed with a copious amount of NZ hops and made with 10% locally sourced Somerset apple juice. This beer’s roots run deep within our brewery, we have continuously brewed it since 2012 and we have no plans to stop anytime soon!

In 2013 we experimented with ageing a batch in Cider Brandy barrels, the result was absolutely staggering and Ninkasi Premier Cru was born.

This version has been aged in white wine barrels for 18 months allowing for further development and maturation in the oak. The barrels have complemented the beer beautifully, homogenising the different flavours together and allowing the funky apple character to really shine.

It will continue to age exceptionally well in bottle so drink one now and save one to age gracefully for years to come…
