BURNABY, BC – Steamworks Brewing has announced the release of a special variant of a beer released last year in collaboration with Blasted Church Vineyards.
Purgatory (8.4% abv) is described as follows:
Purgatory is a Barrel Aged Brett Saison which has taken the Blasted Church collab Sanctuary to new depths. The grape must infused Sanctuary was aged for months in a barrel with brettanomyces and then bottle conditioned with white wine yeast. The resulting beer balances big fruity wine flavours with a tart and dry finish.
Purgatory is the first in a new series of cork-and-cage 750 ml bottle releases from Steamworks, and is available now at the brewery’s Burnaby and Vancouver locations, with distribution to select private liquor stores to follow next week.
