Named for the fantasy cousin to Steampunk, Gaslamp Fantasy blends Steampunk with magic, often mythical creatures, and also often darker settings.
Deep ebony color with aromas of dark fruits, sweet hay, balsamic vinegar, and farmhouse ale funk. Smooth dry body with balanced acidity. Flavors of stone fruits, blackberries, and pie crust are engulfed in mild Brettanomyces funk. This dark ale was aged in third use Bourbon oak barrels once aged blueberry mead from HoneyBound Meadery in Tyngsborough then Mothership Imperial stout. This recipe has been a winner of the South Shore Brew Club’s 2021 Brewoff and recent winner of the 2024 Crafties Championship.

5oz brewery draught, 11/17/24. Cola-licorice. Clear. Thin, dark beige head. Juicy, rich, rounded. There's acidity but it's not aggressive. Good chocolate and honey-like maltiness in support. Tasteful fruit additions. Juicy, fruity, lightly chocolatey. Super interesting culture. Lighter body, wouldn't hate a bit more depth but it's not very acidic, so not a big problem. Obviously well-cared-for.
