I’m putting together a tasting of beer brewed with wine grapes. Let me know if you know of any others I can try to track down. So far I have found the following:
Upright Oregon Native (pinot noir)
Upright Going Gris (savignin rose)
deGarde Grande Noir (zinfandel)
Mikeller wineale (riesling)
Almanac White label (muscat and spices)
Dogfish head noble rot (botrytis Viognier)
Bruery Terreux (gewurtz)
Cantillon St Lamvinus
I know LoveBeer out of Italy makes one with Barbera (I’d be willing to trade vino or heady toppers if anyone has a line on this). Also saw that Tired Hands makes a beer with merlot.
Vindemia Noir
Vindemia Noir is a blend of 3 different ales matured (between 1 & 3 years) on our Chambourcin and Cayuga grapes in Gandona Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon and Matthiason Vineyards Merlot barrels.
Dogfish just stopped making 61 minute, IPA with Syrah, it was my favorite beer from them. Noble Rot is very good. Try getting up with Mad Fritz to see if they have any of The Fox And The Grapes left. One version used Petite Sirah and another used Petit Verdot.
