In late summer 2021, we made a macerated wine from grape varieties as Muscat Ottonel, Pinot Gris and Gewürztraminer. After primary fermentation, we added the wine to a barrel of beer we brewed 9 months earlier. Just before bottling the beer underwent a short maceration with some Moro bloodoranges.

Pours orange, medium foam dissapears fast and completelt. Scent is brett, mild oak, some fine cirussy notes (the white between the actual fruit and the peel, specifically) bit petrol like (from the Pinot gris, I'm sure) . taste is sharp, dry, acidic, fairly bitter, some tannins even, very mild, hidden even citrus, way less present than the aroma. Grapes are fairly silent as well, but do provide an earthy, spicy backbone, bit floral. Weirldy enough, the most silent in the nose (muscat and gewurtz) are the most outspoken in the mouth, and vise versa. high but very fine carbonation. Typical Antidoot beer,a dn if you know Antidoot, you know what that means !

Vintage 2023. Orange body, with a small, yellowish head. Aroma of bitter orange, spicy white wine, citrus, some funk. Tastes quite similar, with more cheesy funk. Medium mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation. Finishes dry, vinous, spicy, wooden, funky, with bitter orange. Unique and interesting, as always. Quite complex, with the bitter orange, vinous and funky notes really well balanced. Score: 8 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 16
