ROSWELL is a prime example of Black Project’s aim to explore the outer limits of coolship spontaneous fermentation. The intense amounts of fruit (raspberry) are added to a blend of one of our 100% spontaneous bases at a very specific time in its development. ROSWELL is made once per year during the late spring from Lambic-inspired wort that was brewed the prior fall. This gives us a beer that has all the depth of flavor but with a lower acidity than it would have after spending a summer in the barrel – ideal considering the amount of acidity naturally present in the fruit. The beautiful spontaneous flavor, funk, and complexity stand up to and melds with the otherworldly amount of vibrant fruit flavor and aroma. Fruit character will diminish substantially over time so we recommend enjoying ROSWELL fresh, although aging may yield interesting results.

Bottle, 500 ml at Luppolo Station. Super intensive red fruit in aroma, sour cherries and raspberries. More fruit in flavour, soft texture, quite sour. Puckering. Murky red with off white head.
