Dreamscape is the second of six exclusive beers for the 2018 Cellar Society. It is the first single barrel beer released and came entirely from barrel #4 - a french oak cask from Jalisco, Mexico, that previously held tequila (and immediately before that, Californian white wine)

With Dreamscape, I wanted to give something really special to Society members. I found that this barrel had incredible depth and complexity, most likely due to the diverse collection of microbes that fermented it.

This beer is sealed with a cork under the cap to maximize cellaring potential. An additional fermentation took place in the bottle to carbonate and ensure longevity. Store in a cool, dark place with a consistant temperature for best results. It was released to Cellar Society members for pick-up in the Luppolo tasting room in November 2018.

Bottle. Hazy dark blonde. Thin head. The nose is quite buggy, lacto and brett, and there's a nice bit of tequila accent in there as well. This has a lot of lactic acid, some sweet malt and tequila influence. But overall it's quite tart. I find the bugs are more gentle on the palate - the brett at least - but the barrel lends a nice influence to the finish.

Tasting at Matt's
Cloudy blond colour. The aroma is very fruity, stone fruits, quite evident manure too. Aggressive acidity, but also smooth; it has a good fruity character, light botanical note that can be the tequila, astringent and sour finish.
There are some interesting elements, but it's also dominated by the acid.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma is fairly subtle on the tequila, with only a touch of the barrels, a little wild yeast, and gentle acidity. Flavour is fairly intense, with lots of tequila barrels, intense citric notes, and sour fruits. Somewhat enamel-stripping, but it works alright. Lacking the depth and complexity of some other Temporal offerings, but it's cohesive and balanced. Good stuff.
