A visit to barley fields supplying grain to Simpsons Malt has inspired a new 5.4% ABV brown ale from Siren Craft Brew.
As well as seeing the barley grow, Siren — and other invited brewers — visited a factory, too, to learn about the production, industry, and sustainability of the malts that we know and love in our beers.
Siren brewers Sam and Jez were already planning a brown ale, and this trip cemented that brew, and built on it.
Follow Me To The Fields uses Munich, Simpsons DRC, Simpsons T50, crystal rye, brown malt, chocolate, wheat, naked oats, and crystal dark in its malt bill. It’s hopped with Simcoe, Mosaic, Strata, and HBC630.
