From Jester King:

We continue to celebrate American Craft Beer Week with the re-release of Jester King Serrata — barrel-aged wild beer with Japanese Red Shiso, brewed in collaboration with Gigantic Brewing in Portland, Oregon.

In March of 2021, we brewed with well water, Texas-grown malted barley and wheat, Amarillo hops, and Red Shiso. After primary fermentation in stainless steel with our mixed culture, we barrel-aged the beer in neutral oak for about a year. We then blended and naturally conditioned through re-fermentation in the bottle. 6.3% abv.

Visit Jester King to get a glass or purchase bottles to go (750ml/$18). Also available for pickup here. We have about 1,000 bottles available. 11 bottle limit per person. Shipping/delivery illegal in Texas.

MONTMORENCY VS. BALATON

June 1, 2022

Today we're releasing our 2022 blend of Montmorency vs. Balaton! "MvB" is our barrel aged wild ale re-fermented with Montmorency and Balaton cherries from Michigan. One of our running jokes at Jester King is, "What is your favorite fruit to ferment with beer, and why is it cherry?" Cherries are indeed hard to beat when it comes to fruit re-fermentation. We get delicious notes of cherry pie, cinnamon, and marzipan.

2022 Montmorency vs. Balaton is our 8th blend. 4.9% abv. We hope you enjoy!
