After primary fermentation with farmhouse yeast, El Cedro is dry hopped with Citra hops and aged for weeks with Spanish Cedar spirals. It is unfiltered, unpasteurized and naturally carbonated through re-fermentation with Brettanomyces yeast.

Hazy and pale, medium Pale and slight haze. Medium head. Big cedar aroma, as advertised. Toasty aroma with lots of brett, good body, a touch of brett C but then the tannic assertive cedar takes over through the finish. Top quality.

From tap at BeerTemple, Amsterdam. Bone dry and nicely funky. Fruity as well with citrus, hoppy notes, grass, touch of pineapple and stone fruit. Medium body. Tart and mild sour with a moderate hoppy bitterness. Lovely.

0.75l bottle. Hazy golden body with a huge white head. Aroma and taste of pine needles, sugar syrup, hay, lemon zest, lemon grass, soap, barnyard notes and sichuan pepper. It has a very nice hop bitterness to it. Very nice.

Opalescent golden colour, large, dense white head; aroma of very intensive piney, lemon zesty-lemongrassy, grassy, some soapy hay and sichuan peppery notes; taste is surprisingly hoppy-bittery with the same notes as cant be felt in the aroma; great one! Thanks so much for sharing, kapusil!

Batch #14 Sept 2022. 750 ml bottle. Pours a thick hazy amber with moderate head. Aromas of creamy muddled fruit tending towards mashed apricots, cottony brett, mashed stoned fruit, and toasted malts. Flavors follow same though brett effects are much sharper; plus there is an additional tartness. Cannot detect the cedar.
