A Dark Sour Beer Aged in Oak Barrels With Black Currants and Sea Salt

No one is quite sure who dreamed up the idea to brew a Gose style beer, but make it black. Regardless, we made a date with Short Finger Brewing Co. on Valentine’s Day, and kept adding midnight wheat to the mash to achieve the inky blackness of our vision. Could it be none more black though? Blackcurrants were submerged and a murky opacity slowly evolved, blotting out the light. At last, our imagination was satisfied!

2019 edition that pours a dark murky purple colour with a brown hue, a creamy pinkish head, average retention and some creamy lacing. Sour nose with some punchy gooseberry feel, and the blackcurrant in the background. The taste is quite sour with the berries again in back. The sea salts are even more in the background. Hints if you will. Maybe they will come out in the end. Let's see. Yes, hints - but sourness is to the max.

A dark milky purple ale with a thin light rosey head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with loads of jammy blackberry, light mineral notes, light acidity, very nice. In mouth, a sweet tart mix of lemon pulp, black berries, dark fruits, Epsom salts, very nice. On tap at brewery.
