The Hungarian Terroir Series was created for beers that are completely unique and unrepeatable. These beers are made with some special local ingredients, like fruits, spices or barrels. Furthermore the role of the producer is also very important. The first member of the series it's a collaboration brew with the Heumann Winery from Villány. Spontaneously fermented beer with Syrah pomace. After the fermentation we put the beer to Hungarian Syrah Red Wine Barrels for a year. The result is a very complex beer.Aroma is funky, a little brett and soft vinous notes. Taste is mildly sour with some Syrah red wine notes.

Bottle at a tasting, Zil verne. 2017 edition. Med-med-full body, rather low carbonation. Moderate honeyish, grapey sweetness. Light developing funk. Light wood and wine present too. Some noble mold. Good but not great.

Tap @ Borefts. Pinkish blonde color. Glue, soft vinous notes, brett and marzipan in the aroma and flavor. Too much off flavors to really appreciate this beer.

0.375l bottle. Golden body with a thin white head that disappears quickly and without a trace. Brett, wood, lemon juice and some vinegar in the aroma. Taste of wood, apples, vinegar, lemon zest and a bit of grapefruit. Balanced between the wood and the funk. Solid beer for sure, but considering the concept and its price tag, I expected even more.
