Blended Wild Ale w/ Blenheim Apricots

Happy 2019! We’re super excited for our first release of the year to be the second blend of Le Con. We went in kind of a different direction with this second run, and Sara and I both think it’s one of the best beers we’ve made to date.

So, we used the exact same apricots as batch one, namely the Blenheim variety from See Canyon Fruit Ranch in San Luis Obispo. The quality of their fruit is amazing. This year the farmer was a little worried since the super hot and dry weather gave some of the apricots burn marks. But apparently it didn’t matter, or potentially made the fruit even more flavorful!

For the blend, we really liked the first batch, but it was very sour, so we wanted to tame that aspect down a bit. We decided to blend exclusively from our “lambic inspired” base, which typically has a much more restrained acidity and increased funkiness due to the use of a lot of aged hops. We chose 3 barrels that we thought worked really well together, and had sort of a natural stone fruit character to them when combined. We then added roughly 2.5 pounds per gallon of apricots, and let that age on the fruit in barrels for twice as long as we normally do. And we were very pleased with the result.

Le Con will be released to the public this Saturday January 12, if bottles remain.  This was a relatively small batch for us. Cheers!
