The first batch of Uncomfortable Silence was one of our earliest collabs with Brassneck. It's a dark Belgian-style ale with cherries. Fermenting with Chimay and Brett. Lambicus, both carrying cherry esters themselves, layers the red fruit notes over and over on top of themselves. A sort of cherry-superposition, if you will, with a touch of funk.

Flight at brewery. Pours murky light brown with white head. Aroma has sweet cherries, saison yeast. Flavour has gentle sourness; cherries throughout, bitterness imparted by pits and skins, peppery saison yeast. Nice balance between cherries and yeast, but pretty timid.

Small pour after another freaking crazy weekend 🤪 Appearance: hazy copper with a white head. Aroma: manure, Brett, cherries, cherry stones, funk, some dryness. Taste: along the same lines, quite dry. Overall: meh.

Hazy amber-brown, not much head. Some cherry, light brett, alcohol up front, brett, toasty notes and mild cherry.

On tap at The Magnet, pours a deep dark burgundy with a small off-white bead. Aroma has lots of spicy saison yeast, some black pepper, a touch of cherry, and plenty of funky brett. Flavour has some crunchy wild yeast, black pepper, some earthiness, and subtle cherries. Not the most coherent yeast expression — it comes across a bit muddled and crunchy. The cherries also aren't incorporated all that well. It's alright.

Poured from the tap @ Dageraad. Hazy copper brown with small off white head. Mild belgian yeast with some subdued cherry character, not especially complex, but it's decent.
