Méthode Traditionnelle 3 Year Blend
This blend of one-, two-, and three-year-old spontaneously fermented ales was produced in San Diego county and is inspired by the Belgian process of making traditional lambic. California-grown pilsner malt and raw, unmalted wheat create the foundation of this blend, which was inoculated solely by wild yeast and microorganisms indigenous to the Miramar area and Mt. Laguna during a Pure Lambic camping trip. Warm-aged hops added to the boil provide aromas of funk, Asian pear, and earthiness. High levels of carbonation make for a brew that practically dances on your tongue with tastes of fine cork, bready malt and gooseberry. The bright acidity upfront gives way to a smooth and refined finish that is both dry and refreshing.

27 April 2019. At Zythos Bierfestival, bottle (11/2018) shared by Terry, an American visitor - many thanks! Hazy yellow, lasting, very thin, frothy, white head. Aroma of unripe apricot, yellow apple, yeast, sourdough, lemon, grass, cheese, a bit sweaty. Taste is medium funky sour, cheese & sourdough, wheaty & lemony edges, a bit lactic, sweetish apple & pear, bitter tones of grass, white grape & leather. Dry, tart, woody finish, lactic, lingering unripe yellow fruit. Medium body, oily texture, fizzy carbonation. Quenching, fresh and accessible ‘Geuze-like’ by this American brewery.
