Vienna lager base, aged in American Oak for 9 months. The medium-toast barrel has just enough char to strike a balance between drawing out butterscotch flavours and imparting vanilla notes. A touch of sourness rounds out the beer and pulls everything together.

330ml bottle from brewery. Pours a clear amber-gold, thin white head. Aroma of oak, vanilla, butter, malts; interesting. Taste is sour milk, butterscotch, vanilla, oak. A combination that should never work but its oddly pleasant and complex. A nice zing on the carbonation. Strange but good.

330ml bottle. Pours dark orange with a small head. Aroma is sharp red wine vinegar and woody vanilla. Taste has sharp and sour cheese and lemon throughout. Some woody vanilla on the finish. Lambic esque.
