Description
Spontaneous fermentation was on the beginning of beer history. It can be found in just a handful of breweries. This beer style is unique. Come and taste the forgotten flavors with us!
Wild Creatures is an experimental brewery from Mikulov, founded by Jitka Ilčíková. All their beers are fermented in a purely natural way, without the addition of yeast. Jitka gradually discovers the charms and insidiousness of wild spontaneous fermentation. Coming from a wine region and also having a small family winery, she can combine fermentation with different varieties of wine and other fruits to create imaginative taste creations that must find their way to your taste buds.
At first, the brewery produced beers for the foreign market and they collected awards around the world, and only with the advent of the pandemic did they think about production for the domestic market and started bottling in luxurious bottles.

Pours clear, gold to amber. No real head. Scent is vineous, rubber, sugary, raisins, mild oak. Taste is full, very tokaji-like. Very raisin forward. Dried white fruit. Nearly no carbonation. Vineous and woody, perhaps a bit OP's, but certainly more than enjoyable.

Tap at Lya. Hazy golden-orange body, off-white head. Pleasant sweetish aroma, light funk on sweet grape notes, clearly wild yet not dried out. Drier taste, hmm, definitely not as lovely as the aroma, minerally, funky, mild apple seeds, though there is an interesting fruity presence, somewhere in between odd and not sweet citrus candy and grapes. Then it starts growing on you, even if the odd dry and lightly tart finish doesn't let it breathe much. Good stuff!

Pours dark pink, big to huge pinkwhite head. Scent is full on cherry, but also funk from the basebeer. emphasis on brett for sure. Taste is full on cherries again, touch of fruity sweetness. Not nearly as dry as an Oude Kriek, but still very enjoyable. High on brett, lower on acidity.

Clear red colour with lasting head. Juicy red fruits in the aroma together with a fresh funkiness. Tart and funky taste but not extreme. Well balanced. The grape comes through well.

Slow gusher. Murky, dark yellow colour. Really intense fruity aroma with some farmhouse funk too. Loads of apricot. Moderately tart, close to sherbet. Funky taste.
