What Our Editors Thought
“Yeast-forward natural-wine note in the aroma, creamy and vinous with an ‘on lees’ character. Vinous with an earthy apple-cider touch in the flavor, thin body, and sharp acidity, but a pleasant tang.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Muted aroma reminiscent of a jelly sandwich. Strong, clean sour. Cherry flavor comes through slightly and builds on the sour base. A slight licorice aftertaste.”
What the Brewers Say
“Raw wheat, cherries, and wild yeast start life in a wooden open fermentor and finish on more cherries.”
