Hourglass Brewery is releasing three wild ales in May

Hourglass Brewery now apparently has the bottle release down to an art and they are working out more of them in the future. For now, according to the brewery newsletter:

the big news for May on the beer front is that we’re simultaneously releasing three beers in our Wild Ale Series on May 21st.

Each of the three wild ales were bottle conditioned with champagne yeast, and embody a dry, funky flavor. These are wild ales, not sours. While the beers certainly have a funky profile reminiscent of sours, the difference in the acidity levels — the wild ales are not acidic.

Each bottle was labeled, filled, corked, and caged by hand at the brewery!

The three wild ales are:
Wild Hare Wild Ale (9% ABV) – Golden ale with brettanomyces and organic, locally grown persimmon and roselle. We brewed this in collaboration with Wild Hare Kitchen And Garden Emporium.
White Gold! (8.5% ABV) – Golden ale with brettanomyces, white pepper, and white sage.
Tereré Saison (8% ABV) – Belgian saison brewed with yerba mate and lime and fermented with a traditional saison yeast and brettanomyces.
The Wild Ale Series will be available for purchase on May 21st. $15/each. There are less than 400 bottles of each. Limit of 4 per person per flavor. When you buy 3 wild beers you can get a 4th Hourglass bottle from any of our previous releases for just $10 (choice between Nutsquasher, La Fe Dragee, and Cloudberry).

May will also include another sour IPA release, a brand new Maibock, which will be the first large batch lager from Hourglass, and the start of a themed Belgian Trappist style series!

Hourglass Brewery is located at 480 South Ronald Reagan Boulevard in Longwood.
