Gruit Bier
A hybrid between a sour beer, and a Gruit.
Gruits are a historical style of beverage that used botanicals in place of hops. This beer is a modern adaptation, with a Five Barrel twist. It is light and tart with a crisp sour lemon and herbal finish. It is dry hopped with hops, Cascade and Simcoe so that you know it is still a beer, but also has hibiscus, lemon and juniper thrown into the mix.
