This deep pink to crimson colored beer was spontaneously fermented on Pinot Noir must from Benton-Lane Winery and has notes of dark berries, dried fruit and hints of forest floor on the finish. The wild fermentation created a medium acidity and a touch of barnyard funk to lend subtle complexities to our first lambic-inspired ale.

500 c&c shared by Marcus. Pours somewhat ruddy copper with a transient white head. Aroma is wood/Pinot with a touch of red berry. Med body. Pretty dry. Flavor is somewhat yeasty, somewhat must wood, some red berry and not much bitter. Then bang! Surprisingly bitter in the finish. Mildly sour. Not exactly a lambic, but suggestive.
