MBCC / ÅBEN
ÅBEN will be pouring beers at this years Mikkeller Beer Celebration Copenhagen.
And it is not just any random beer you will be able to taste. For the first time ever it will be possible to taste two beers from ÅBENs Wild Barrel Aged Program.
The two Wild Ales called “Beach House #1” and “Beach House #2” have been brewed exclusively for MBCC and have been underway for 2,5 years.
Here are the details:
The beer has first been fermenting 1 year in steel tanks and then 1,5 years in 500L Chardonnay barrels (two different barrels, hence, two different beers).
The beer itself is a wheat beer clocking in at 6.5%. It has been made with fermented saison yeast and the yeast strain consist of brettanomyces, pediococcus, lactobacillus plantanum.
We have tapped 20L from each barrel into steel tanks, carbonated and kegged it, and now it is ready to pour.
What else will ÅBEN be pouring at MBCC?
Besides the new Wild Ales you will be able to try some of our personal favourites. Among others you will be able to try Diffuse Light, Specular, Stolen Red Berries and Stolen Passion Fruits.
Hope to see many of you during the weekend.
