Holy Goat - Spectral Lore, Fruited Sour 5.9%

Framboise style sour beer with Scottish Tayberries.

Inspired by the Belgian Framboise style, we refermented our base golden sour beer on 220g/l Scottish Tayberries harvested 12 from miles from the brewery. Tayberries are a cross between raspberries and blackberries, named after the River Tay, which runs through our home of Dundee, where these berries were first bred.

This beer combines a blend of two golden sour beers, brewed with local Scottish barley, wheat and oats, and fermented with multiple Brettanomyces and bacteria strains. Whilst a framboise style is traditionally brewed with raspberries, we decided to use our local tayberries to showcase their intense raspberry character, vibrant pinkish red hue and huge aroma.
