Wheat Wine is very similar style to Barley Wine, but in this type wheat malt ratio reach the 70%. A hazy orange color with thin white head. Aroma is bready with subtle notes of caramel and honey. Dry body, high alcohol content and smooth mouthfeel. Malt flavors dominate, showing a medium wheaty backbone, with some fruitnees, like apricot. It's a real curiosity. The Franky, Boris & Avi beers are limited editions, and are either in a 0,375 l or a 1,5 bottle. Only a few thousand are made. Each bottle has its own number and the year of production written on it, which is important because each year we keep the first 120 beers. We plan to make a special collection in the following years, which will contain the saved bottles.

Deep golden pour, white head. Sweet notes of malts and booze, strong honey touch, faint fruity character. Long sweet finish, medium body, soft to normal carbonation. More of a barley wine imo, but a tasty brew nevertheless.

Clear orange beer, no head. Aroma: caramel, malty, cheesy, little dank, sweaty feet, alcohol. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: bit sweet, caramel, sugary touch, little bitter, more sugar. Aftertaste: oxidized, sweet, caramel, sugary touch, nice!
