Bottle Release #3, A change of Pace

Join us Saturday August 6th for our third bottle release! Ferme de la Ville Provision is our Farmhouse style ale over a year in the making. This funky and tart golden ale is a big change from our last two releases, Figgy Pudding and Pappy’s Dark.

Ferme de la Ville, or Farm of the City, is a beer over 15 months in the making. 15% is matured 12 months and another 15% is matured 9 months, both in Oak barrels with Brettanomyces. We then blend the matured beers with fresh beer in the spring. After two months of conditioning we package the beer in bottles and Kegs and allow further conditioning of six weeks.

In the bottle we prime with fresh yeast and sugar allowing natural carbonation to form at significantly high levels. The corked and caged Belgian bottles allow for this higher carbonation without breaking. On draught we force carbonate to higher carbonation levels than our other draft beers and serve it from our tap line designed for this.

2011 Release Details. 96 cases produced

Saturday August 6th at Block 15 normal Pub hours. Bottles are $13.95/750ml. Limit of four bottles per person. If you buy three or more bottles we will throw in a custom printed re-usable bottle bag. $2 a bag otherwise. Also, we will have the 2010 version on tap as well served in a taster set with the 2011.

    Nick, ever since Patrick and I sat in your Fermentorium last year and tasted a version of this beer, I’ve been waiting for it to be released to the public. I am really looking forward to it. And the label’s gorgeous!

    Fermentorium! Excellent. Hopefully you can join us at The Beer Mongers on Friday. Patricia Smith is our very talented artist for the labels.
