"Americaner Vice"-- Curiously, Cowbell earned its name due to its excellent blending Characteristics in our Barrelworks program. When mulling what barrels to blend, inevitably, we came back to this beer. Beau Sorenson, our cellerman, coined the name Cowbell, because our blends seemed to benefit from “more Cowbell”. Cowbell has bright, bracing acidity along with a soft vinous champagne flavors, culled from the foeder in which it matures. Velvety oak-derived vanilla mingles with aromas of tangerine, apple and apricots.

On draft at Barrelworks. It pours a clear light golden color with a white head. The aroma has lemon and aged funk. The flavor is very tart and lemony with some more aged barnyard-like funkiness. Very complex for a Berliner. Low carbonation kills it a little, but good flavors.
