Knee Deep by Parallel 49 Brewing

6.8% ABV • 500 mL bottles

The latest release in Parallel 49’s Cork and Cage series, this barrel-aged sour saison spent six months in red wine barrels, imparting a “juicy berry character of raspberries, strawberries, and full-bodied red wine. Oak tannins and vanillins are accompanied by an earthy funk, citrusy tartness, and floral undertones, as well as notes of tart grapes, honey, and white peaches, in this crisp and effervescent beer.” Knee Deep is available at the brewery and in private retailers across B.C. and Alberta in the coming weeks.
