Part of our Funk on the Water 2021 vintage bottle release:

@HouseofFermentolgy’s Complementary Dots: The first of the series: A collaboration with Backdoor Bread. (@backdoorbread). Available Friday.⠀
⠀
Complementary Dots: Backdoor Bread is an American Wild Ale which comes as the result of the creative collaboration between HoF and a good friend, Jim Williams of Backdoor Bread in Charlotte, VT. This beer was brewed just over a year ago after Todd asked Jim if he'd like to create something together. For the beer, Jim decided to bake a German/Scandanavian-style rye with whole grain @ThornhillFarmVermont rye, which was added for a long steep toward the end of the brew. Similar to HoF’s wild ales, these breads undergo lengthy fermentation periods, so it felt very fitting. In addition to the use of these loaves, Peterson Quality Pilsen malt was utilized as well as Triticale and @NittyGrittygrain’s raw wheat. Finally, fermentation began and came to completion in Pinot Noir wine barrels. Toward the end of fermentation, a touch of citrus zest was added to the barrels. This wild ale opens with a vibrant, citrus forward aroma. Very tart, with freshly squeezed lemonade on the palate followed by ripe citrus, a hint of raspberry and subtle notes of sourdough. Exceedingly, and pleasantly effervescent. Enjoy.⠀
