When it comes to today’s tart, funky, fruited masterpiece, the blending experts at Elder Pine used just about every trick they have up their sleeves. 

Within the Twilight is a blend of two different Wild Ales, fermented with various strains of brewer’s yeast, lactobacillus, and brettanomyces for a brew that’s pleasantly funky. They allowed the mix to age in red wine barrels for a year, imbuing it with a tannic tartness. 

Finally, the brewers added a massive amount of boysenberries — a sweet-tart fruit that looks and tastes like a raspberry and blackberry’s lovechild — and re-fermented the brew until no sugar remained. What’s left is a dry yet jammy explosion of berry flavors that has craft fans like @John P calling it “just phenomenal!”

The Elder Pine team crafted this limited-run celebration Ale for the brewery’s anniversary, and it truly highlights their artistic strengths. Pop it open to celebrate an anniversary, a birthday, or a dinner party — this hard-to-find brew will make any get-together a little more special!
