New Beer

Heidrun

Heidrun is a goat from Norse mythology that inhabits Valhalla

 (Norse heaven), and from its udders springs beer (other reports

 have mead- beer works better in our case). This beer is my take

 on a Finnish Sahti, which some argue is the oldest continually

 fermented beverage. Traditionally, they are brewed with juniper

 boughs and rye malt, with other botanicals thrown in here and

 there. This beer has rye, oatmeal, juniper, caraway, honey, and

 black and white pepper. This beer has a rich malty character

 with spicy counterpoints. The hops are very subtle, it rings in at

 about 7.3% abv.

Food Pairings: this beer goes well with rich meaty dishes like the ribs.
