The Open Work Tart Cherry & Raspberry
Brewed with a traditional turbid mash of 70% pilsner malt and 30% raw wheat and boiled for 4 hours with aged hops, inoculated solely with our brewery air, and blended from casks of different ages and characteristics, The Open Work is our highest expression of respect for the near-forgotten brewing tradition that lets nature unfold without intervention, revealing its complexity and beauty.
Whole tart cherries from Bittner-Singer Orchards in Appleton, NY & raspberries from both Wright’s Farms in Gardiner, NY and Phillips Farms in Milford, NJ underwent a carbonic maceration for three weeks before blending and an additional three weeks of conditioning directly on the fruit. The result is refreshing, tart and berry bright with brett-driven funk and a bitter undercurrent of savory aged hops.
