A hazed murky dark rosey ale with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, wonderful mix of tart cherry, light lactic notes, cheese, loads of Brett, very nice and earthy. In mouth, a nice tart mix of tart cherry, loads of Brett, ground cherries, lactic acid notes, very nice complex. On tap at Lupulus.

Pinot Noir Wildwood from Bench Brewing
7 years ago
7.8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 7
500mL bottle, pours a hazy copper orange with a small white head. Aroma is bone dry, with lots of wood, some vinous notes and gentle wild yeast. Flavour is quite funky and wild, with lots of barnyard funk, vinous notes (white wine), lightly tart citrus, and wood. Woody and wild. Excellent.

Riesling Wildwood from Bench Brewing

On tap. Pours a clear copper color with light head. Seems to be Riesling and apple juice. A tart fruity summer time beverage. Be that as it may, very nice.

Pinot Noir Wildwood from Bench Brewing

Tan with a touch of pale pink. No head. Richer tartness than the Riesling variant, lots of pinot noir on the palate, and still fairly woody. No bad, but it's a bit tarter than the riesling and I prefer the higher sweetness in that one.

Riesling Wildwood from Bench Brewing

7.8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Blonde with just a slight haze, and a very thin head. Woody and vinous nose. On the palate, this has a big, juicy riesling character, mellow tartness, good balance and complexity.

Hazy and pale, thin head? Has a big clean pale malt, minerally, but a bit husky, and not great.
