Wheatwine, stop if you have heard this before, doesn’t have its own space in the bottle shop cooler. But when you can find one, it usually is a special release and one to try. Such is the case with Karl Strauss and their 34th anniversary release.
Here are the details from the brewery, “To kick it up a notch for our anniversary, we aged ours in Chardonnay barrels with New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc grape peels. Aromas of freshly baked bread and caramel dance with hints of oak from the barrels and subtle herbaceous notes from the grape peels. It’s full-bodied, with a luscious mouthfeel and a smooth finish.”
