What Our Panel Thought
Aroma: “Earthy woody character adds to the aroma. Slight tartness. Spicy grape character with a soft tartness and a slight musty/wood note, vague hints of other fruits in a generic way.”
Flavor: “This beer blends well with an acidic lemon tartness up front that carries through the taste, but not too much. Fruit notes of grapes and cherries add some sweetness, but come in a bit dry as well. The earthiness and wood character adds complexity in the taste. Carbonation is a bit low.”
Overall: “A very sour funky beer for those who like acid bombs. The sourness is a little over the top in the end and dominates the beer from start to finish. Otherwise the underlying beer has some nice complexity, and there’s a fruity sweetness that would show more complexity if not for the intense sourness.”
What the Brewers Say
“A celebration of Brettanomyces and Missouri wine grapes. Tart and bright grape and berry notes combine creating a bracing acidity over earthy funk and subtle caramel malt. Bottle conditioned.”
