10. Barrel Projects Club Solera Project
“ a process for aging liquids such as wine, beer, vinegar, and brandy, by fractional blending in such a way that the finished product is a mixture of ages, with the average age gradually increasing as the process continues over many years.”
This will allow the club to produce, for members, a steady supply of various sour beers with a focus on consistency and quality.
These beers will be club-funded.
