Jester King Brewery - 100°

Back in July when it was blazing hot in Texas (it's the first day of Fall and it's still hot), we got the idea of making a nice, light refreshing farmhouse ale inspired by a Shandy cocktail we were serving. We came up with a recipe using lemon peel and ginger root, and we called the beer "100°" to coincide with some cool label art designed by Jester King Artist Katie Ross. 100° is a farmhouse ale brewed with well water, San Jacinto Heritage Malt and Denton County Wheat Malt from TexMalt, organic Perle hops from The Oregon Hophouse, dried lemon peel, and ginger root. It was fermented in stainless steel with a mix of farmhouse yeast and native yeast, then naturally conditioned in bottles and kegs.
