COOLSHIP WILD ALE (2 YEARS)

(5.5% ABV)


THE LOW DOWN

TIME & PLACE is a 100% spontaneously fermented Coolship Wild Ale created in our authentic Coolship (koelschip). In the spirit of tradition, we allow the wort made with 60% barley & 40% raw wheat to naturally cool overnight in our Coolship (purchased back in 2015 – First in Australia) then laid to rest in premium French oak barrels for 24 months using only aged hop flowers for protection. Nature is driving this one and brings to us the wonderful natural microflora from the adjacent Darebin Parklands (130 acres+) to allow us to create a truly artisan ale with a sense of place & time.

 

BREWERS NOTES

Time & Place is the second release from our Coolship Collection aged for 2 years in premium French oak where after 100% spontaneous inoculation in our authentic Coolship it was allowed to further develop and ripen over the last 24 months. The sheer complexity of this true wild ale is intriguing as it is expected when time is allowed to direct this very natural ale made with a sense of place, time & season. The wonderful acid profile is upfront yet restrained with a kind of tension typically reserved for young developing wines, the length is long and whimsical yet finishes with a familiar sense of refreshment and maturity.
