Tasting Notes: Taking inspiration from cuvée wines, which is a blend of a special blend of different varieties of grapes, Arcobaleno, which means rainbow in Italian, is a blend of different mixed-culture saisons that have been barrel aged for 1-3 years. Each barrel was conditioned on a mélange of locally sourced whole fruits including: Aldergrove cherries, Naramata apricots, Fraser Valley raspberries and Lillooet plums. Expect a juicy, vinous fruit character with a bright acidity and a subtle oak complexity.

Pale pink-purple, slight haze. Aroma has a lactic-acetic note, and is grapey, with woody accents. The tartness strikes first on the palate - this is sharp, big vinegar. The palate features accents of fruits - cherry and apricot - but more wood influence, and the acetic character is certainly not shy.

On tap at Luppolo, pours a cloudy dark muddy reddish brown with a tiny white head. Aroma is intense, with tons of acidity coming from the berries and plums, some perfumey notes, and mixed bugs. Flavour is very jammy, with lots of jammy berries, plums, and some bugs. Acetic, acidic in general, but not too enamel-stripping. It’s alright.

6oz pour at the brewery. Pours murky copper with minimal head. Nose is very jammy with an unpleasant oily, acetone character. Flavour is acidic and jammy, plums and cherries most detectable; not as much acetone on the palate. Mouthfeel is a bit oily. Not very well dialed in.
