We went down a bit of a rabbit hole with our funk inclined Nor-Cal brethren from Almanac Beer Co. We brewed a fairly traditional Bier De Garde & lagered it for 8 weeks before putting it out to pasture for 6 months in one of our 'Foeder Crafters' American Oak Foeders with our House Culture. Kausened with a fresh batch of Pilsner for natural carbonation before being canned.

Can shared by Yaniv, thanks! Pours a clear deep gold with a white head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has sour light fruits with a good amount of funk underlying. Flavor has more straw and light funk and a bit of flora in the finish.

Pours a slightly hazy, amber-brown, with minimal head. Aroma is fruit, sour, some funk. Flavor follows. Nice, lightly sour beer, with a saison-like finish. Mouthfeel is fairly crisp and clean. This is good stuff.

The Aromas are funky, spicy, yeasty sour malt. Flavors are like nose, fairly dry, with some Citrus and a touch of sweet in the Finish. Good slightly soft, body and carbonation. Reminds me a little of what Dupont Saison used to be like.
