When I first tried this barrel, instantly it reminded me of a cava. It has that bright acidity that catches your attention right away, along with a touch of funk that feels lively rather than wild. There is a soft earthiness running through it, giving the beer a grounded feel, and a lingering bitterness that cleans the palate without overstaying its welcome. Celestine is a spontaneous saison fermented in barrel for six months, shaped slowly by the wild microbes and the quiet pace of the cellar. It was brewed with 100% malted barley and coolshiped overnight on a 3°C night, letting the cold air leave its mark on the wort. The result is a thoughtful, bright, celebratory beer, perfect for gathering with friends over the holidays or ringing in the new year with something refined yet effortless.
