Label copy:
The story of Barrelworks began eight years ago with a few weeks stashed in between pallets in a warehouse. Today, it has its own cathedral, housing more than 800 barrels of eclectic origin and size.
Behold Bretta Rosé! A low-alcohol Berliner Weisse style ale, acidified and matured in French oak puncheons for 6 months, is the foundation for this gem. Add 1000 lbs. of fresh raspberries, allow a secondary wild fermentation for 4 more months and voila (!), we have a crisp effervescent concoction, bursting with raspberry perfume and flavor, a rosé color, bracing acidity, and a clean and refreshing finish.
