Neill and Ross
Overview
Neill and Ross was a collaborative effort between Alan Ross and Olly Neill that produced one lambic (Shot in the Dark) from a Girardin base. This project was retired after Alan moved out of Ireland.
Shot in the Dark
Shot in the Dark was produced with 10-month old Girardin Jonge Lambiek that was brewed in 2010 with 60 kilograms of locally-grown blackberries added. The lambic and fruit were added to a freshly emptied, uncleaned Bordeaux barrel and Shot in the Dark was bottled three months later. The lambic still contained just enough sugar to not require a blend.
Approximately fifty 75cl bottles were sold commercially.
