ARTISAN BLENDED SOUR ALE

Our seventh release of Perseguidor is an exhilarating blend of 15 different oak-aged wild ales. Batch 7 was blended for extraordinary complexity while maintaining a balanced drinkability.

Deep brown in color with a captivating aroma of spicy malt & a hint of funk. Mildly acidic & smooth with a medium body to support its intricate flavors. A floral & complex fruit character leads into roasted chestnut, chocolate, & mild spice notes that encourage you to pick up the glass again & again.

Single from that good shop on Houston, you know the one, with the fish tank.

Pint glass at home. "Enjoy within one year", but we're left without a stamp. Definitely not fresh. Zombie Ron is so angry right now.

Big, cascading cola head. Murky cola.
Smells of dark berries, spice, cola, inviting earthiness, floral.
Twangy dark fruit, mulled red wine, flat Dr Pepper, earthy but approachable funk, mellow herbal bitterness, slight Brett floral. More cherry as it warms. The finish wants to be dry but can't get there.
Low co2, juicy, whatever abv with a slight warmth.
Had this years ago & have no recollection other than regarding it as good. As is, it's better than solid, semi-complex sour at a very good price. It's tasty but I'm just not jazzed about it. It doesn't evoke happiness like the glass bottles used to.

3$ can from vintage. This stuff pours like root beer. Interesting fine bubble tan head fades quickly to pond scum. Nose is mouth watering tart, like an fine open vat wild brew. Oh my, the first taste is so satisfying, much better than expected. Such a fine lovely beauty, great texture and an almost puckering flavor. No nonsense here, just good old fun wild beer flavor. Approaches some of the finer gueze lambics I've done and its much less expensive. Now I'm looking at the label; over 7% ? NO WAY! Hides the alky very well. I'm liking this, should have got a sixpack! Near the end, I'm getting just a tad bitterness, that may be coming from the oak, not sure but overall this was a treat fer sure! Great job there JP! Right up there with the better flemish and unflavored lambics baby! Yummy beer rating session!
