What Our Editors Thought
Deep woody cellar on the nose, like a limestone cave—humid, with blue-cheese funk wafting. The sip tempers the cheesy funk with malty caramel, as light bitterness lingers over the sweet funk—dry and succinct. Remarkable.
What Our Panel Thought
Nose of stone fruit, mango, and guava, with leather, earth, and barnyard. Funk-forward flavor with peach, lemongrass, hay, and a slightly bitter leathery note carrying into the finish. Smooth acidity draws citrus and tropical fruit across the palate; a touch of sweetness helps to balance it. Nice complexity. Lovely nose provides insight into what's coming. Very nice beer.
What the Brewers Say
Our first ever blend of turbid-mashed one-, two-, and three-year old spontaneously fermented lambic-inspired ales designed in the spirit of Belgian gueuze. The layered flavors of funky fruit, cheesy hops, gentle oak, a bright citrus acid profile, and a pleasant natural carbonation give this beer unrivaled complexity for its strength.
