Blending + Sour + Ninkasi
The art of blending has huge appreciation in the wine and whisky world but isn’t often talked about in terms of beer. Perhaps it’s considered a little too wild? Not for us.
Zintuki is Ninkasi’s younger, wilder sister (and goddess of food and dinner.) A perfect name for this blend of Ninkasi (our Celebratory beer made with a small amount of local apple juice) and Somerset Wild (a sour beer fermented using yeast and bacteria from local orchards).
A combination of the complexity and champagne spritziness of Ninkasi with the dry lemon acidic sharpness of Somerset Wild, gives a blend richly aromatic on the nose, refreshing on the tongue and deeply satisfying on the palate. Designed, and named, to be the perfect complement to food, this beer is heavenly with fish, chicken or cheese.

On tap at Valhalla Zagreb. Unclear pale golden coloured, medium sized white head, sourish fruity nose with whiff of white grapes. Sourish yeasty, light fruity, notes of brett and white grapes with mild tartish finish. Refreshing and nice.

330 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 7.3%. Moderately hazy golden colour, moderate white head. Aroma of brettanomyces, sour cider, lactic acid and sour fruits. Fizzy mouthfeel. Sour and lemony flavour, lots of lactic acid. Too sour for me.
