Cherry/Peach/Sour
We got the annual call from Greenhill Orchards to grab some peaches and then “how about some cherries too”. Couldn’t say no to that. So we’ve gone all out with a big dose of pressed cherry juice and whole late harvest peaches in a light sour. Get the ladder – the best fruit comes from the top of the trees.
We fermented a light coloured but layered malt bill with the Philly Sour yeast at a warmer temperature to ensure a nice strong acidity. The cherries were traditionally basket pressed and the juice was added late in fermentation together with the whole stewed peaches. The result is a light pink coloured sour with big cherry aromas while the body is mainly delicate peach. Trust us – real fruit makes a difference, this sour is spritzy and the fruit just pops freshness!
