The exploration of yeast strains and the different results we can achieve are beautifully exemplified in Evolver, a pale ale with a difference. 100% fermented with Brettanomyces. For the first 3 months the beer tastes the same as a fresh pale ale, then the differing flavour compounds start to shine through and after 6 months the Brett really takes hold.
The brettanomyces yeast is particularly good at keeping hop flavours fresh for far longer than traditional brewing yeasts. The Evolver takes on a more complex character over time as the yeast and the hops combine to produce a new and exciting beer that will continue to evolve as the yeast slowly matures the beer.
This is a beer that can be drunk fresh, as a normal pale ale or left to evolve and mature into a unique and unusual beer.

Aroma of tropical fruits,grass, floral notes, subtle funk, light resin, fresh hops. Flavour is medium bitter. Killer Brett IPA. However, I’m guessing my sample was on the fresh side rather than aged. I would love to find out how this ’evolves’.

Tap at the Grub. Interesting. Lot more flavour than other wild beers i've had. Taste is not overly bitter and has a pleasant cheesy creaminess. Lychee. Also sweet tropical fruitiness, peach. Aroma is a bit weird. Hint of wet cardboard, cement. Light fruitiness. Enjoyable

Tap @IndeWildeman. Golden color. Fermenten peach and mango in the aroma. Bretty notes. Brett and vegetables Dominating the flavor. Just a light sourness, mango. Firm grassy earthy hops. Bone dry. Nice!
