Casey Brewing & Blending Backdrop: Chardonnay Grape 11/24/23
Saison 6 º
This farmhouse ale presents a vibrant fusion of rustic grains and elegant fruit. The inclusion of buckwheat alongside barley and wheat provides a unique, earthy foundation, while extended aging in oak wine barrels introduces a subtle structural depth. The heavy addition of Chardonnay grapes imparts bright, vinous layers of green apple, white peach, and a soft, honeyed floral note. Effervescent and bone-dry, it balances the spice of a traditional Saison yeast with the refined acidity and mineral character of the fruit, delivering a sophisticated, harvest-driven sensory experience that is both complex and refreshing, showcasing the grapes in their most elegant, fresh form.
Appearance. Hazy, pale gold with a dense, long-lasting white rocky head and intricate Belgian lacing. Effervescent carbonation is visible through the slight fruit-induced cloudiness.
Aroma. Moderate-high intensity featuring white grape, pear, and melon from the Chardonnay grapes. The buckwheat provides a rustic, nutty graininess, complemented by spicy black pepper yeast esters and a subtle floral hop character. Hints of neutral oak and a faint, lemony tartness underline the aromatic profile.
Taste. An initial burst of white grape skin and stone fruit acidity is followed by an earthy, rustic cereal note from the buckwheat. Hop flavor is low and floral, with bitterness remaining restrained to allow the fruit to shine. The finish is exceptionally dry and effervescent, leaving a lingering spicy pepper and mineral-like aftertaste. Neutral oak contributes a light tannin structure rather than direct flavor, enhancing the vinous complexity.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with high, prickly carbonation that creates a refreshing, effervescent mouthfeel. There is a slight, pleasant tannic astringency from the grape skins and oak aging, with no perceptible alcohol warmth.

Backdrop is our new farmhouse ale brewed with buckwheat. By adding the buckwheat to the grist alongside the barley and wheat and aging for close to a year in oak, we ended up with a rustic and complex farmhouse ale completely different from the rest of our line up. Each blend is aged for months in oak wine barrels and then packed with whole fruit at over two pounds per gallon. This fruited beer is meant to be enjoyed fresh to experience the fruit used in its most elegant form.
