After 21 months in red wine barrels, this funky pale was refermented on strawberries. This beer is one of three fruit expressions that share the same base beer.

Best paired with a meditation on the travails of the farm workers that hand harvest these delicate fruits.

Bottle at home from CW online. Pours hazed orange with a pinkish hue and very thin lacing. Aroma is strawberry, grape, brett funk, oak, wine character there too. Taste is a juicy strawberry hit, grape, oak, brett funk bring a sharpness which mellows out with the wine barrel leaving a dry fruity finish. Cracking stuff
