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

750mL bb 9/23, batch 4008. Drunk 3/18/23, thanks, Gene! Clear mahogany. No head. Bourbon but also strong booze. Raisin, vanilla, prune, oxidation....yeah, getting quite a bit of raw alcohol. Hmmm, that's a lot of alcohol. Bready, vinous, overattenuated. Seems like they didn't get the malt backbone they needed to make a beer of this size. Too much bread, raisin, alcohol.
