Veritas 019

Aroma: “Excellent bouquet of fruit. Raspberries dominate, but some cherry flavors as well. Light barnyard funk, light lemon.”

Flavor: “Raspberry flavor is prominent and even more jammy than in the aroma. Very dry. Quite tart, clean, a bit of funk.”

Overall: “Bright, clean, full-flavored fruit, a very good use of raspberries on an enjoyable base. You’d sip this one on the lake during the spring.”

“Veritas 019 is a blonde American sour aged on French oak for more than a year before being spiked with raspberries. Pouring shockingly pink, Veritas 019 begins with sweet aromas of rich berries and notable peppery Brett. Intense, vibrant raspberry character leads to a sour middle with notes of funk on the finish.”
