Maestro 2024 - Sasion Conditioned on Roasted Sotol from Ultramundo
There’s a 24,000-acre ranch of wild desert in northern Mexico, near Mapimi, Durango. That beautiful land is home to wild boar, puma, and more, including the endangered Bolson tortoise. It’s also home to 39 species of cacti, scrubs, and desert grasslands — and Lamparillo agave and sotol. Sergio Garnier at Ultramundo has been using the agave to make Mezcal. He’ll be using the sotol to make … well, sotol. We snuck in before he could do that to swipe 200 pounds of the cooked succulents to make this beer.
This beer was brewed using aged hops to allow the naturally occurring microflora of Zona del Silencio to express itself. This results in a wonderfully unique beer with notes of sultanas, serrano peppers, tanned leather, honeysuckle, bruleed banana, prunes, grilled pineapple, a hint of smoke, and a deft touch of acidity on the finish.
This version was conditioned on roasted Sotol and only 196 bottles were made.
A portion of sales will be donated to S.A.C.R.E.D. to replant agave.
Style - Saison Fermented on Roasted Agave Hearts
ABV - 5.4% ABV
Production Time: 10 months
Release: September 2024
