Armsby draught, 3/29/26.
Just an absolute force of Brett. And it's playful and fruity, not overdeveloped. Mixes with the authentic blueberry to give some tannin and soft funk/earth/pepper. Soft, rustic malts show light honey, cracker, biscuit. Low but ample acidity.
Fruity and mildly tart in flavor. Lots of Brett with well-attenuated fruit giving no excess sugar. Malts show just enough depth but leave the beer lighter and drinkable. Fruit is fantastic and I like that the blueberry is more prominent, contributing to a less acidity overall. After what seemed like a devolution in to very sour beers, Oxbow feels back to its roots with mildly tart beers. Haven't had a cringey sour from them in forever.
