Continuing our series of wine grape-matured farmhouse ales, this deep crimson-colored beer underwent a second fermentation on 2017 Pinot Noir must from Benton-Lane Winery and has notes of dark berries and dried fruit, with a subtle earthiness on the finish. It ends with firm acidity intertwined with a soft berry sweetness.

Bottle at Foeder For Thought. Pours ruby with small off white head. The aroma is grape skin, yeast, oak. Medium body, oak, funk, sweet grape, berry, vinous, light dry finish, very nice.

Great dry wine notes with grape sweetness. I give a lot of grape juice addicts shade, this would be a secret weapon to turning them over to the beer side!

On tap at Growler Guys, pours a hazy golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out wood upfront, with gentle acidity, red wine barrels, and some wild yeast. Flavour brings out the funky wild yeast critters, with biscuity notes, and red wine tannins. I like the expression of wild yeast here, accentuated nicely by the red wine barrels. Excellent.
