Foeder-aged American wild ale with boysenberry
The latest fruit treatment in our Frucht series bursts forward with clusters of juicy boysenberries. This American Wild ale earns its notes of funkiness and natural wood character from resting in oak foeders. A balance of berry tartness and subtle floral-like sweetness round out this prost-worthy beer.

750 ml bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 12/29/2016. Pours slightly hazy deep ruby red/purple color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy light pink head with good retention, that reduces to a thin spotty lace cap that lingers. Minimal lacing on the glass. Aromas of huge tart/sour blackberry, raspberry, blueberry, strawberry, raisin, plum, lemon, lime, green apple, red grape, wheat, cracker, oak, hay, straw, and grass; with light pepper, leather, musty/lacto funk, red wine vinegar, and yeast/oak earthiness. Incredible aromas with fantastic complexity and balance of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, boysenberries, oak, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; with big strength. Taste of huge tart/sour blackberry, raspberry, blueberry, strawberry, raisin, plum, lemon, lime, green apple, red grape, wheat, cracker, oak, hay, straw, and grass; with light pepper, leather, musty/lacto funk, red wine vinegar, and yeast/oak earthiness. Moderate fruity/lactic tart/sourness and light yeast/tannic oak spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of sour blackberry, raspberry, blueberry, strawberry, raisin, plum, lemon, lime, green apple, red grape, wheat, cracker, oak, hay, straw, grass, pepper, light funk/vinegar, and yeast/oak earthiness on the finish on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, boysenberries, oak, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; with an awesome malt/sourness balance, and zero puckering/astringent flavors after the finish. Light-moderate dryness from acidity, tannins, and carbonation; increasing through the glass. Medium-high carbonation and light body; with a very smooth, moderately crisp/acidic/grainy, and lightly tannic balanced mouthfeel that is awesome. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.5%. Overall this is an amazing fruited Berliner weisse! All around incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, boysenberries, oak, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and quite refreshing to drink; thanks to the balanced sourness. Super jammy on flavors. Still very acidic, but not as intense and puckering as the other Berliners I’ve had from this brewery recently. A highly amazing and delicious offering.

Bottle thanks to Taylor. Pours a dark purple with small white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is dough, berry, wheat, cereal. Medium body, jammy, berry, dough, low acidity, nice tartness, good.
