Barn Owl No. 4
Barn Owl No. 4 emerges dry and funky, with a subtle tartness that sits comfortably short of sour intensity. A year spent in used oak barrels alongside brett strains and currants has shaped a farmhouse ale that balances restraint with complexity: the fruit presence remains a hint rather than a statement, allowing the wild yeast character to breathe. The result is aperitif-ready—lean and refreshing enough for early evening, with enough funky depth to sustain interest. Serve cool.
