Beer Description

Laurentian: Superior is a spontaneously fermented beer brewed at Ore Dock Brewing Company in Marquette and chilled in a coolship next to Lake Superior. The next day we transported the chilled wort to Speciation to ferment in six neutral oak barrels for the rest of 2017. In early 2018 we selected two of those barrels to blend into our first spontaneous release, Laurentian: Superior. Grist consists of turbid mashed pilsner and wheat, aged hops were used to bitter, and we boiled for 3 hours. This batch was brewed to Méthode Traditionnelle standards other than the fact that these two barrels were charred.
