Burning Sky, Anniversaire 2026

Anniversaire 2026 is Burning Sky’s annual celebration of the brewery’s passion for mixed fermentation and patient barrel ageing. Crafted using traditional farmhouse brewing techniques and matured in French oak, this limited release showcases the complexity and elegance that have made Burning Sky one of the UK’s leading producers of mixed fermentation beer.

Lightly spiced during the boil before being fermented and aged in French Chardonnay barriques with carefully selected wild yeast strains, Anniversaire develops layers of delicate fruit, soft oak, gentle spice and refreshing acidity. Every bottle reflects months of slow maturation, allowing the yeast, wood and beer to evolve naturally into something beautifully balanced and remarkably expressive.
