Claude, a farmhouse ale with white peaches

We are ecstatic to announce the release of Claude, our farmhouse ale with white peaches from @collinsfamilyorchards.
This year’s batch uses 700# of white peaches from the 2024 harvest hand processed by our team. Fruit season at Fair Isle requires a lot of helping hands and we are grateful to our entire staff that helps during this time. After processing, we added the peaches to a blend of farmhouse ales maturing in oak for an average of 12 months to re-ferment to dryness before packaging. These farmhouse ales were brewed with Luminosa hops, contributing more stone fruit characteristics to the base beer that complement the white peaches. All in all this beer is almost two years in the making and requires the help of many working hands.

Claude exhibits delicate notes of peaches, apricots, vanilla and toasted almonds followed by a bright acidity. We’ve always enjoyed how white peaches complement our house yeast culture, and the soft tannic structure from the oak brings exciting layers to Claude.

ワシントン州のSkagit Valley Maltingのモルトで醸造したファームハウスエールをオーク樽で9ヶ月熟成したのち、Collins Family Orhardの白桃を投入し3ヶ月間ゆっくりと再発酵。Fair Isleのブルワー陣はハウスイーストが白桃と混じり合う時に醸し出す味わいには常日頃から魅力を感じており、このClaudeにも大変満足しています。桃、バニラ、ローストアーモンドの繊細なアロマと鮮やかな酸味、さらにオーク由来の柔らかなタンニンが複雑さを加えています。
