Forest For The Trees Barrel Aged Red Ale

TASTING NOTES

From the brewing expertise of Brad Rogers (One of the Founders of Stone & Wood), Forest for the tress is an exciting new brewing venture dedicated to farmhouse, sour and wild beer styles. The red will be the 3rd release in the lineup, which as so far featured beer aged in highly sought after Chardonnay barrels from the Yarra Valley. And a bright and refreshing Saison with some delicate spice additions. The next release is no different with a Flemish Red ale inspired by Brad's many trips to Belgium to visit Boon,
Cantillon and Rodenbach. The barrels held port from South Australia and are incredibly hard to get hold of. This has been highly anticipated from the team at Forest for the Trees. With lots of impatient questions about when it's going to be available. But like anything from us…

BREWERY SNAPSHOT

From the brewing expertise of Brad Rogers, Forest for the Trees is an exciting new brewing venture dedicated to farmhouse, sour and wild beer styles.  Travelling to Belgium every year, he visits world-famous breweries and spends time with the brewers that specialise in these iconic beers. Recognising his dedication to these styles of beer, in 2018 he was invited to be a guest at the very exclusive “Blessing of Belgium Beer”. An annual ceremony that dates back to medieval times, it starts on the steps of the Office of Brewers’ House in the Grand Place in Brussels before parading through the streets to the enchanting St Michael Cathedral. The ceremony leads into a weekend-long beer festival in the Grand Place, a tremendous celebration of beer, brewing and the Belgian Brewing Guild that was formed in the 14th century.
