Wild Ale Aged Twice On Masumoto Nectarines -3rd Anniversary Beer

Can’t believe we’ve been doing this for THREE years!!! Every year so far we’ve made an anniversary beer that was double aged on stone fruit, but we’ve never made a beer that was double fruited all with Masumoto. For year one we did Seconds, a sour aged on See Canyon Blenheim Apricots and Andy’s Orchard Bonny Royal Apricots. For year two we made Tautology, which was aged on Masumoto Rose Diamond Nectarines and Andy’s Orchard Bonny Royal Apricots. Though fucking amazing, we’re fully aware that Tautology was insanely sour and a bit gushy (Sorry!). These double fruited beers are hard to make, but we learned from our mistakes and this year Bibliophile has very moderate to low carbonation and much much less acid than it’s predecessor.

The stone fruit season is roughly from late April until early August, and this year my goal was to showcase the full spectrum of flavors that the Masumoto family gets from their fruit throughout the season. So we used the very first fruit of the season and very last harvest of the season, which both happened to be nectarines, Rose Diamond Nectarines and Le Grand Nectarines respectively. It is very very good.

In honor of my obsession and love for books we named this beer Bibliophile, and every bottle is adorned with a tag that doubles as a book mark. I highly suggest that you get a copy of David (Mas) Masumoto’s wonderful book Epitaph For A Peach (which we sell in our tasting room) and put that book mark to good use! Thank you all for you support over the years, and we look very much forward to partying with you at our anniversary party on Saturday October 12. Cheers!
