The annual emergence arrives with delightful timeliness, in parallel with the new season and possible flower picking (stay tuned!). Brewed with graciously gathered spring blossoms, organic grains, and Vermont wildflower honey and conditioned in wine barrels.

2022 vintage at Snallygaster 2023. Pours light yellow with some white head. White plums and lemons on the nose, light flowers and some green grape. Flavor is white stone fruits and a little tight chardonnay. Tart but smooth finish.

Bottle 750, courtesy of Eric. Shared with him and Miro B at Cellar above ground. Vintage 2018. Clear golden with medium white head. Honey, floral, some subtle wine notes, touch of apples, nice tartness. Fantastic in its subtlety. Soft gentle texture. Loved it.

2021 bottle thanks to Billy. It pours hazy bright yellow with a decent fluffy white head. The aroma is musty, funky, big vibrant floral character, summer meadow, meadowsweet, grass, light spice, oak, vinous, white wine, sherbet and tangfastics. The taste is crisp, firm, dry, snappy, clean, bright, vibrant, crazy floral, summer meadow, daisies, dandelions, white grape, gooseberry, melon, vinous, lemon sherbet, hint of dry oak, tannin, sherbet, fizzy cola bottles and a touch lactic in the backdrop with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Exquisite. Lovely balance and flavour.

Bottle, courtesy of Sergey, vintage 2018, 3 years old, bottled August 7 2018
Cloudy blond colour. Funky aroma, strong, some citrus peel. It seems a bit undercarbonated; quite strong acidity, and funk, with lemon, leading to a drier finish.
Excellent.
