Funk Metal is an unfiltered, unpasteurized, naturally conditioned imperial stout fermented with farmhouse yeast, aged for months in oak barrels with wild yeast and souring bacteria, and then hand-blended with other barrel-aged beer to round out the palate. The finished beer retains aromas of chocolate and roast but takes on a distinct vinous character and sour complexity from extended aging and fermentation in oak barrels.

Tasting @ Tim's. Pours dark brown with some reddish hue, aggressively brown foam. Nose has lots of boozy and vinegary alcohol soaked berries. Some cocoa character in the background with light roast. Tastes vinegary, more of that cocoa dust with cherries, chocolate candy. Very decent balance with lots of berries back there, light bitterness, cocoa dust. Amazing stuff, enjoying this immensely. Finish has some herbal linger, oaky and a bit of ash there. Chocolate roast still there but still a great sour. Superbly made.

Svart med lavt lys brunt skum. Lukter mørke sur bær og noe kaffe. Lett. Smaker lett avsure bær, kirsebær IG noe trevirke. Middels lang. (Beavex17)

Tap. Darkest brown color with beige head. Aroma is dark malts, chocolate, earthy, tart. Taste is cherries, chocolate, cocoa, super-smooth. Velvety mouthfeel, tart cherry finish. Very nice (and I am usually not a fan of dark sours!)
