July Beer Release


  • Speciation Artisan Ales 928 Wealthy St SE Grand Rapids, MI, 49506 United States (map)

JULY RELEASE INFO:

Prickly Pear Incipient - Foeder Aged Solera Sour w/ Prickly Pear - One of the most popular Incipient blends comes roaring back for the summer, and this batch is supercharged! We added twice the amount of prickly pear this time around, and it’s such a juicy summer crusher. $8/16oz can - 6.5% abv

Rise to Sour - Spontaneous Amber Sour Ale Aged in Whiskey Barrels w/ Lemon Zest - Battlecross Collaboration - We are known metalheads, so when Matt McGachy of the band Cryptopsy and the podcast Vox & Hops told us he was planning a massive band x brewery collaboration event… we jumped on it! We were paired with the incredibly talented and badass band Battlecross to blend a unique beer. After tasting a number of barrels and having a particularly raucous night, we settled very quickly on a whiskey sour inspired beer. The rest is history! $8/16oz can - 7.5% abv

Conservatory - Foeder Aged Tart Wheat Ale - Conservatory is a relatively simple beer, blended from our base beers aged in very large oak barrels called foeders. This batch is 50% golden sour and 50% wild saison, and 100% Michigan grown ingredients. Blended and canned without any additional ingredients to put our house cultures front and center. You can drink this beer with intention and really dig into the nuances of our yeast and bacteria flavor profiles, or you can just put a few back while floating down the river or sitting in the sun. $20/4 pack - 5.5% abv

Genetic Drift - Solera Saison DH w/ Saaz & Centennial - This is a fresh blend of our staggeringly complex, yet rustic farmhouse ale... perfect for savoring year round! $8/375ml bottle - 6.5% abv
