Description
Wide Street Brewing Company specialises in mixed fermentation methods and 100% Brettanomyces beers. Our vision is to brew innovative beers with alternative fermentation methods. Our house yeast is a custom blend of Brettanomyces, saccharomyces and lactobacillus strains from Bootleg Biology, a yeast laboratory based in Nashville, USA. This gives our beer a distinctive dry mouthfeel and enhanced fruity flavours. We have released many unique styles of beers since we started in May 2019 such as saisons, grisettes and table beers as well as mixed fermentation aged sour beers. We also love experimenting with new hops and brewing styles and have recently released Farmhouse Pilsner and a Cashmere IPA with no Brettanomyces in them

440ml can. Cloudy, yellow-ish, golden colour with huge, dense, firm, beaten egg white head. Yeasty spicy and minimally yeasty fruity aroma, minimally bready-grainy and spicy, pale malty background, hints of banana, some white pepper, some black pepper, minimally grassy, herbal-spicy, hoppy overtones. Taste is mildly bitter, herbal-grassy hoppy, yeasty fruity and slightly yeasty spicy, sweet-ish and minimally bready-grainy as well as spicy, pale malty, minimally diluted hints of banana, pear, melon, some black pepper, white pepper, a touch of protein.
Minimally oily, watery texture, slightly dry, simultaneously minimally greasy palate, medium, dense, prickly carbonation.
Well balanced, very nice, rural-spicy yeasty notes, subtle sweetness, well matching hop flavours - enjoyable.

Huge, dense & fine white head over finely carbonated clear golden beer, leaving shards of lace. Bit lemonpeel, even "wild-yeast-y", but smelling of watercolour paint. Bitterish, and again this very outspoken watercolour paint flavour. Just a pinpoint of lemon. Very well carbonated, even creamy feel from the head. Finish and aftertaste feel a bit empty. Mates. A beer is either Pilsner or Vienna, not both. And THIS is in no way Vienna! Txs to Stef!

ADTWD team tasting in sunny Halzlemere. Can. Just a light haze on this pale yellow gold beer, decent bubbly white head. Airy palate, fairly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Airy light bodied pale malts, a light wheaty tang. Light pine. A very mild blink-and-you-will-miss-it Motueka streak. Light finish. Nice enough palate cleanser.
