Brewer’s Notes:

CHIMACUM VALLEY

Brewer’s notes:
“I've made saison which we package in what we'd say is similar to the methode ancestrale, ie: pet nat, where the beer is bottled during primary fermentation and finishes its fermentation in the bottle to create the carbonation. We also have bottle conditioned beers using gyle, which is to say beer which was just brewed and has had yeast pitched but hasn't yet really begun fermentation (somewhat similar to krausening, which is using still-fermenting beer during the peak of early fermentation). 21/22 Chimacum Valley was made by taking very old and well aged beer and blending about 50% young (6 week old) beer in after the initial fermentation had slowed but before the latter fermentation would really kick off and dry the beer out.

Blending old beer with young beer is a classic technique which is integral to the history of saison as an agricultural product, so it seemed fitting to call back to that history with this beer which celebrates the amazing Elwha River spelt that Keith and his family are growing out in Chimacum.

The beer has some really nice floral and citrus notes, and the mouthfeel is wildly fluffy for a beer that is totally dry and has no residual sugar. We always try to drop saisons this time of year because it's so great to drink classic saison in the sun, and this is one that I expect will also age really well.
