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.

Bottle at a WC tasting at Zil verne. Grape combination Svatovavrinecke + Merlot. Weird cheesy and butyric aroma, also slightly in flavour. Med-thin body, med-light sweetness, medium sourness, light tartness. Also medium dark grape character. Good, might get better later, is pretty fresh apparently.

Bottle at a WC tasting at Zil verne. Quite thin, feels a bit watery, med-high carbonation. Med-high sourness, light aetic, but also hints of butyric. Mostly a pleasant character though. Med-light funk, feels restrained in a beer like this. Moderate currant fruitiness is the center of the overall character. Finishes with a hint of acetone. Easy drinking, quite good.
