Jester King is excited to bring back Space Waves this week! They collaborated with Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales for this delicious brew, filled with cherries, lime juice, and lime zest. This farmhouse saison was fermented in stainless steel with Jester King’s mixed culture brewer’s yeast, native yeast and native bacteria. It is then blended with Jester King’s Montmorency v Balaton (a barrel aged sour with cherries) at a ratio of 12 parts Space Waves to 1 part Montmorency v Balaton.
Stop by and grab a bottle or order online and pickup.
Jester King has also released their next fruited Grisette*. Their latest is with Montmorency and Balaton cherries, to keep with the cherry theme haha. Jester King added equal parts of each variety to Grisette*-style beer at a ratio of about 1.25 pounds per gallon. The goal was to make a very drinkable beer, low in acidity, with present but not overwhelming fruit character. With an emphasis on balance and drinkability, Jester King primary-fermented the Grisette in stainless steel for a few weeks, then added the cherries for secondary fermentation in stainless as well. Jester King’s intent is for their fruited-Grisettes to be enjoyed fresh, while the fruit character is still vibrant and the fermentation character is “clean”.
Cherry Grisette is 5.3% abv. It’s unfiltered, unpasteurized, and 100% naturally conditioned. It’s available for online ordering and pickup at Jester King now.
