Inspired by Flanders Reds of old, Blood Magick is a blended sour red ale combining 70% provision strength ‘young’ stock beer aged 4 months, with around 30% ‘mature’ stock beer aged in well used whisky casks for an average of one year. The combination of old and young beers has produced a complex sweet and sour flavour profile with a subtle oak character.  

This blend was transferred onto 200g/l of 2024 harvest blackberries in addition to 200g/l spent chuckleberries and lees from a previous batch of Altar of Plagues. 

Founded in 2021 by Vault City co-founder, Johnny Horn, Holy Goat is focussed on playing the long game and allowing their beers to develop with wild yeasts, fruits and barrel-ageing.
