Le Terroir is a french term meaning ‘of the earth’ and is frequently used to reference the natural, environmental conditions that affect beer. So it is with our Wood Cellar and the foeders in which Le Terroir is created. These oak barrels combine nature and craftsmanship to age our sour beer in varying temperatures, humidity and vibrations. Coupled with dry-hopping using fruit-forward and experimental hops, Le Terroir is a beer that rewards differently every time you experience it.

Bottle at home. Vintage 2016, tasted 19.03.2019. Pours a clear amber colour with an off-white. Aroma of apple cider vinegar, forest floor, hay, horse, dried apricots, pepper, mango and gooseberries. Sour flavour of vinegar, lemon juice, hay and oak. Has a slick mouth feel, medium body and no bitterness. Intersting aroma. Surpsringly sour and is a bit unbalanced. A little one dimensional.

Bottle shared by Willrunforbeer. 2013 vintage. Clear in color golden appearance. Aroma is Marion berries, lactic acid, herbal tones. Flavor is not offensive, just a light lactic note, herbal, and an weird unripe fruit hint.

On tap at Beavertown Extravaganza 2018. Hazy amber colour dirty. No head. Some pate. Some funky sourness lemon peach. A bit too acidic for me. OK. Meaty.
