Bottle @ Ratebeer Odense Summer Gathering, 2017. Pours Hazy pinkish with a small White head. Raspberries all over. Funky and Dry. Intense and authentic. Fresh! Dope.

375 ml bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 8/9/2016. Pours slightly hazy medium golden/amber light pinkish/orange color with a 2 finger fairly dense and fluffy off white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Nice spotty lacing clings on the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big sour/tart/tangy raspberry, cherry, fruit skin/seeds, lemon, lime, green apple, pear, red grape, white wine, pepper, oak, hay, straw, leathery/musty funk, wheat, cracker, light white vinegar/vanilla, and yeast/oak earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, raspberries, wine barrels, and light-moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big sour/tart/tangy raspberry, cherry, fruit skin/seeds, lemon, lime, green apple, pear, red grape, white wine, pepper, oak, hay, straw, leathery/musty funk, wheat, cracker, light white vinegar/vanilla, and yeast/oak earthiness. Moderate fruity/lactic tartness and yeast/oak spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of tart/tangy raspberry, cherry, fruit skin/seeds, lemon, lime, green apple, pear, red grape, white wine, pepper, oak, hay, straw, leathery/musty funk, wheat, cracker, light vinegar, and yeast/oak earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, raspberries, wine barrels, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; with a great malt/tart/spiciness balance, and zero puckering sourness after the finish. Moderate dryness from tart/spiciness and carbonation, increasing through the glass. Medium-high carbonation and medium body; with a very smooth, moderately crisp, and acidic/tannic/grainy balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 6.8%. Overall this is an awesome fruited sour/wild ale. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, raspberries, wine barrels, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and refreshing to drink with the balanced lactic/tannic/drying finish. Great Brett complexity and jammy fruit presence; not overly lactic with a solid malt backbone. Nice level of funk after the 11 months of bottle age. A very enjoyable offering.

375ml bottle. Pours orange pink. Aroma is like a punnet of fresh raspberries. So much raspberry, yoghurt, vanilla, honey, little cherry, lots of dry white wine, apricot, pepper, nice oakiness, huge tart white wine vinegar. Gorgeous light fizzy body. The background is so complex, but the raspberry rings out over everything. Not far off perfect.

Bottle. A- Raspberry lemonade, tart, mild funk. A- Orange pink color, clear liquid, white head. T- Raspberry lemonade, tart, sour, subtle plastic. P- Light body, average texture, medium carbonation, refreshing finish. O- Didn’t get much of the funk that some of these other Farmer’s series beers have. This one was straight up refreshing tart raspberry. Delightful. It was hard not to just chug this down and slowly savor it.

Bottle at the brewpub. Pours slightly cloudy salmon pink. Aroma is very spritzy already, an impactful carbonation is already felt in the nose. Good raspberry aroma, has the air of a raspberry syrup made with sparkling water. Light body, super fruity and rather sour, yet well matched with each other. Carbonation is softer than expected, but carries the beer beautifully. Very tart. Medium long but rather dry palate, more raspberry. Good.

Yummy
