Resisting the temptation to comfort the masses, we kept this bottle conditioned beer beyond the typical. Fermented in tequila barrels with brettanomyces and conditioned for months, then blended with a sour lactobacillus base ale. Generous heaps of raspberries were added during conditioning time to finally be re-fermented in the bottle. Made to inspire and be enjoyed in the little moments in your life.

500mL bottle, pours a hazy orange with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of brett, moderately tart raspberries, and a touch of acidity. Flavour is tart and dry, with dusty raspberries, some tartness, and gentle funk. Smooth and cohesive, but not hugely complex. Pretty solid.

500mL bottle. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Funky yeast, raspberries, and a grassy earthy quality on the nose. Flavour has fermented raspberries, attenuated wild yeast, light tartness. Pretty solid.

500ml (thx, Ryan!) @ Sales Force. Appearance: cloudy golden with a white head. Aroma: some funk, nice body, some fruity notes, a bit tart. Taste: along the same lines, tannic, woody, noticeable Brett notes (especially in the finish). Finishes a bit harsh. Overall: far from being exceptional, but it's a nice surprise from the local brewery.

Hazy and pale. Thin head. Big stone fruit aroma, light brett and some interesting barrel accents. On the palate, the fruitiness is clearly raspberry. The body is soft, with some fizziness. There's gentle pale malts, mellow brett, and a touch of barrel. The finish is somewhat quick, but this is solid.

Poured from 500mL bottle. Hazy pastel gold with small white head. Mild raspberry, light acidity, feint tequila. Not totally integrated, but okay.
