The final ingredient is the blending, after a significant period of ageing we blend red wine barrels and bourbon barrels together to produce a truly layered complex elixir. Red wine barrels, bourbon barrels, brettanomyces, time and blending, make this a truly unique beer.
Food Pairings
Modus Operandi is our go-to game beer, the rich irony meant joins harmoniously with the malty back bone of the beer. Then the barrel character and tart acidity cut through the richness of the meat. Also try with roasted dishes, the mallard flavours of the dish find resonance with the malt in the beer while the fruit acidity find a counterpoint note.
