Sour Fruits + Wild Yeast + Refreshing Zing
Think of throwing ripe fruit against a dry stone wall on a hot summer’s day and deeply inhaling.
It’s zesty and pithy, with grapefruit and orange peel and a wraparound fullness. A grapefruit zing in the glass, some acidity and a farmyard earthiness.
The Amuse has been aged in wonderful Burgundy Chardonnay barrels, the acidity of the beer not disimilar to that of the wine that was previously aged in them.
