Organic Anniversary Blend • Currant, cherry, wine Year Two is a retrospective of the most well-aged, and most interesting fruited sours and saisons from Halcyon's second year of brewing. It includes Shifting Sands: Currant and Cherry, two different fruited versions of farmhouse saison Curse of Knowledge (lingonberry and baco noir grape), and a tripel as-yet unreleased from the barrel house. Think of it as our year-in-review highlight reel. Halcyon Barrel House is a new branch on the Beau's family tree. New world brewing, patiently rooted in the old world traditions of mixed fermentation and aging in wood barrels, and bottle or keg conditioning.

    I really like Year One last year, so this looks promising (as I am not a big sour beer kind of guy). Beautifully blended again. Hazy, red-amber with a frothy-creamy pinkish head, decent stay and thick lacing. Aromas are a mix of the balsamic-red wine vinegars and the fruits (mostly cherries). The taste represents the same, but also not so sour in your face. Better balanced with the cherries coming through in the finish. The currant beer had the fruit too low, so not getting much from that one. As one beer, quite well-brewed. Happy second anniversary !
