Sacred Gruit Ale Pale Ale brewed with Yarrow, Myrtle and Rosemary What is gruit you might ask? Gruit is a blend of herbs that brewers added to their beer in the renaissance times if not before. Herbs are an essential ingredient in beer, both as a preservative and to counterbalance the bitterness and flavoring. Herbs were the only thing used prior to the extensive use of hops. Sacred Gruit ale is a pale ale brewed with primary combination of three mild to moderate herbs yarrow, sweet gale (myrtle) and marsh rosemary (wild rosemary). Don't be afraid to go hopless, you never know you might just like it!!!!

    A wonderful blend of fresh herbs, flowers and spices to act against the delicate malt profile. Like walking through an herb garden in Summer. Flat golden-copper pour. Light bodied, sweet and sultry. Hints of honey and fresh cut herbs with a doughy retreat. Almost white wine like with a tasty fragility. I really like this, and would like to have this sporadically.
