What Our Editors Thought
On the nose, a woody, meaty, leathery note with pineapple and blueberry undertones offers a weird entry, but the flavor is another story. On the sip, a general berry note pushes forward with an intense sharpness and a touch of pineapple brightness. The acid is the star of the show, and the fruit can’t seem to grab the spotlight.
What Our Panel Thought
Moderate leathery funk up front. Notes of blackberry and blueberry with a note of acidity. Light floral and vanilla. Hint of pineapple as it warms. Moderate acidity is balanced with a note of earth funk and a slight blueberry sweetness. The pineapple tartness doubles down on the acidity of the fermentation. Fairly puckering.
What the Brewers Say
Mixed-culture sour ale with pineapple and blueberry.
