Wild fruit beer from this Dutch wild beer specialist who insists on working with locally harvested ingredients as much as possible; fruited with cherries and blackcurrant. Batch #3, but with the same fruit as Batch #2 so the same beer, I assume. Off-white, very lightly pinkish-tinged, open and unstable head, misty vermillion red robe with ruby tinge but still clearly a shade paler than your average cherry beer. Aroma of lots of ripe blackcurrant more than sour cherry even if the latter are clearly present as well, redcurrant too, lemon juice, cold rosehip tea, freshly cut grass, bergamot, ‘natural’ iron (ferrous spring water), dry white wine, blood orange, damp earth. Crisp sour onset, rich blackcurrant juiciness again with the cherry being a tad less dominant, raspberry- and lime-like aspects as well, soft lactic tartness running through the whole but the overall sourness is unidimensional and friendly, and seemingly more a derivative of the fruit than of fermentation; light-bodied cereally backbone, bit wheaty, remaining soaked in this crisp, bright, juicy fruitiness, very summery, with a light earthy touch in the end and a retronasal rosehip note, coming across as iron-like but in a perfectly natural and non-disturbing manner. Light-footed, elegant summer fruit beer that fits perfectly in Nevel’s house style, lovely.

Bottle, batch#3. 6% ABV. Reddish pink color. Cherries, red berries and hints of brett and oak in the aroma. Dry, fruity flavor. Red berries and cherries. Tannines. Hint of oak. Pleasant, characterful beer.
