Fuzzy is our Missouri Wild Ale that was fermented and aged in our 70hL French Oak Foedre for 2 years before being racked on to White Peaches from southeast Missouri and aged an additional 7 months as the beer refermented to dryness before being naturally conditioned in the bottle.

Batch 2 Magnum, drunk 9/20/17.
Bright lemonskin yellow with softer gold and rose tints. Small white head fades to cove and there is a gentle haze to the beer with plentiful carbonation in solution.
Light sulfur up front kicks things off with a rustic flare as apricot-nectarine-peach character appears, bright and lightly juicy and very well-homogenized with the mixed culture, base malt and light wine suggestions. There's a soft vanilla-honey note hanging in the background which really softens things (not that it's overly acidic or anything) and provides depth. No alcohol or flaw.
Very interesting flavor with more malt than expected. Honey, white bread and light biscuit all provide a great backdrop to the juicy peach acid. Not overly sour, especially for SP, with fantastically tight, natural carbonation that concentrates then dispereses the acidity. Sumptuous, deep malt profiles provide a great texture, continually, while juicy acids mix with white wine and stone fruit notes to provide further complexity. This has aged magnificently and will continue to do so. A very flavorful, balanced, well-constructed sour from these masters.
