This beer is a balancing act of character familiar to and inspired by the holiday season yet unique to itself. Well paired with rich food, it is dry and tart with a hint of fruited sweetness from conditioning on cranberry and background spice from a light hopping with aged German Select.

Draught at Publick House, 1/6/18.
Lightly hazy, soft-toned cranberry-almond meal with a small, beige head showing moderate-to-moderately-low retention.
Not acidic, sharp or intensely fruity in the nose, but with more mild and fruit Brett acids mixing with a surprisingly substantial base malt. Don't get much gose character, but it's not overdone on the lactic acidity and the fruit is very well-integrated and authentic. No alcohol or flaw. Lingering tart, fruity acids are beautifully homogenized.
In the mouth it has a soft, supple texture with tight carbonation and almost chewy, nutty rye-like character with honey, bright red berries and a great interplay of lightly tart lactic and Brett acidity. Great attenuation, good fruit expression, some gentle funk and lingering malt and cranberry. Excellent stuff.
