A Note on This Beer

Woodland Empire Ale Craft’s adventurous flavormakers set out on a daring mission: To create an IPA that could challenge the complexity of fine wine. 13 months in the barrel later, the dramatic, nectarous pineapple and funky tartness of their mission emerges with Heroes & Villains Brett IPA.

Heroes & Villains shows Woodland stretching every muscle of their brewing prestige. Harnessing barrel-aging, real fruit, Brettanomyces, and dry-hopping, this audacious brew flourishes with memorable flavors rarely tasted in any IPA:

  • Locally foraged white grapes are hand-pressed into the IPA base just before aging, boosting the body with sour, fruity vinous richness while boozing up to 8% ABV.

  • Aging in oak barrels for 13 months envelopes the base with deep oak character, infusing subtle notes of vanilla, cloves, and sharp wood spice.

  • Two unique Brett strains bring out the wild tropical character of pineapples, mangoes, and guavas with a hint of bitter, peppery spice, and the crisp dryness of Sauvignon Blanc.

  • Dry-hopping with Citra Hops invigoratesthe aroma with lively lemon and lime character, while amplifying the juiciness of the mouthfeel.

Last time we featured Heroes & Villains, Tavour members couldn’t get enough of its tropical, wild complexity. Some even said it surpasses any IPA or wine they’ve ever tasted. Barrel-aging a hoppy beer is daring to be sure, but that’s Woodland in a nutshell - a team of adventurous brewmasters eager to wake up and challenge tastebuds one beer at a time.

Not typically a fan of Brett IPAs, but this one wasn’t too bad
