Jester King is an authentic farmhouse brewery started in 2010 in Texas and is committed to mixed culture and spontaneous fermentation. Their beer incorporates their natural surroundings and local agriculture, making beer uniquely tied to a time, place and people.
We’ll be pouring 3 wonderful Jester King beers on tap this weekend:
Jester King-Bug Farm 5.8%
Saison farmhouse ale brewed with lavender, rosemary and spearmint and refermented with fresh pressed watermelon juice.
Jester King-Year 10 Saison 5.8%
10th-anniversary Dry-Hopped farmhouse ale is brewed with well water, 100% Texas malt (malted barley, oats, and triticale from their friends at TexMalt in Fort Worth), and East Kent Golding, Fuggle, and Perle hops. It represents a decade worth of brewing based on local sourcing of ingredients, wild fermentation with native yeast, and pursuing a sense of time, place, and people in beer.
Jester King-Citrus Froot Direct 6.6%
Triple dry hopped farmhouse IPA with Texas Dancy Mandarins and Hamlin Oranges. They brewed a dextrinous wort with raw wheat and flaked oats over a base of TexMalt San Jacinto 2-Row and Wildfire Pale Malt. Then pitched Jester King’s mixed culture in stainless steel with a bio-trans dry hop of Ekuanot and Amarillo. Following primary, they refermented the beer with fresh, hand-juiced Dancy Mandarins and Hamlin Oranges from Orange Blossom Farm in Utopia, Texas west of San Antonio. Then dry hopped the beer two more times with Ekuanot and Sabro cryo before adding the hand-processed zest from the mandarins and oranges. 100% naturally conditioned.
