Mills Bière de Garde First Batch

« Bière de Garde is a blend of three barrels from three contrasting brews produced in January, July and October 2018. The blend produced an easy drinking, dry, malt-forward beer with balancing bitterness and funk. The bottle fermentation included a phase led by lactic acid bacteria, known as ‘sickness’, which produces extra weight and fullness to the mouthfeel. Bottled in November 2019, the beer was effectively lagered in bottle at cold ambient temperatures over winter, before completing maturation in the early summer months of 2020. »
