Markt | Blend N°2
Markt | Blend N°2
Saison
Markt | Blend N°2 was brewed in August of 2023 with a blend of pilsner, wheat malt and raw barley. We utilize a traditional step-mashing process to accentuate an extra-dry and thirst-quenching drinking experience. We hop Markt with both aged and fresh hops in the kettle to drive aromatics of fresh grapefruit, white pepper and pleasant floral notes. Markt also receives a large whirlpool hop addition of German noble hops in order to drive a pleasant citrusy herbal profile that develops complexity with our mixed yeast culture. Markt is fermented directly in oak with our saison yeast along with our resident microflora. Just prior to bottling, we blended in a small portion of mature 4-year-old foudre-aged spontaneously fermented beer to bring depth and complexity to the blend. At bottling, Markt has an average age of 12 months and has been conditioning since its bottling in March 2024. Markt Blend No2 pours a clear straw color with aromatics of lemon balm, fresh sliced green apples and grapefruit and flavors of orange citrus with a lightly spicy noble hop finish, well balanced with a light acidity and high levels of carbonation
