Nocturn Chrysalis is our barrel-aged wild ale refermented with blackberries. As always, it's super jammy and delicious thanks to the enormous ratio of blackberries we use in the refermentation as well as the singular beauty of wild fermentation.

Keg @ IndyMan 2016. Batch 4. Pours hazy purple, thin pinkish white head. Aroma is red berries, funk. Taste is puckeringly tart, super sharp sour with some snappy berry fruit. Some juice, lots of wild complexity. Wish I had a full bottle so I could get to know this beer a little better.
