Imperial Flanders Red con cerezas madurada en barricas de Roble y fudres de Alerce

Nuestro gran amigo Phil Emerson (Head Brewer de Almanac Beer Co) es amante de los gatos y la música, y su pasión por ellos la comparte día a día con las cervezas. Esto nos inspiró para esta colaboración que comenzamos a elaborar en Junio de 2019, cuando visitó Granizo. El resultado es esta intensa cerveza sour, madurada 31 meses en barricas de roble francés y fudres de alerce chileno, y posteriormente refermentanda con cerezas, aportando frescor y balance. Déjate engatusar!

--Bottled, from Etre Gourmet. -- Deep ruby, rich head. Oaky nose with balsamic vinegar and dark cherries. Mid sweet with medium to full body and well rounded mouthfeel, prickly carbonation. Oaky red wine, vinegar tartness cover deep roasted malt. Warming mid bitter finish. Elegant, complex and absolutely delicious.

473ml can. Clear, dark brown colour with ruby shimmer and average to huge, initially dense, frothy, osteoporosing, tan head. Vinous fruity and tangy, yeasty spicy aroma, notes of blue grapes, morello, red wine, dark berries, a spicy touch of mahleb, black pepper, chocolately malty interludes, citrusy overtones of lime. Taste is sour, fruity, vinous fruity, tangy, notes of vinegar, morello, blue grapes, a touch of mahleb, black pepper, minimally sugary, malty basis with a touch of caramel and milk chocolate, subtle sweetness; tartness developes partly from purely acetatic to lactic, citric and fruit acidic, hints of lime peel. Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, astringent palate, medium to coarse, prickly carbonation. Initially seemingly unbalanced and disharmonious if not lumpen, later more homogeneous, matched - vinous fruity, sadly somehow a tad sugary - decent.
