Description
Une Anneé, an Independent Craft Brewery, was born, in 2013, on the near west side of Chicago, with the quest of making fine Belgian inspired ales for all beer lovers. Founded by architect and Chicago native, Jerry Nelson, Une Anneé, has expanded it’s offerings over the years with an emphasis on fruited and unfruited American Wile Ales and Barrel Aged Stouts. In 2017, the brewery moved to neighboring Chicago suburb, Niles, IL and expanded to include a taproom. The working brewery in the background lends a hand to creating a laid back atmosphere where you can sit back and enjoy some of your favorite craft beers on tap.

Bottle shared at Andrew's B-day bash. Pours an unclear pomegranate red with a white head that lingers. Lots of tart raspberry in the nose with some light yeast aromas. Grainy on the palate and quite a bit tart bite. Acidity lingers on the finish with lots of dry raspberry skin and flesh. Fruit is there, but maybe a touch too acidic. Still enjoyable and dry.

On tap at Porter Pub, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out fresh tart passionfruit, with light wild yeast. Flavour is along the same lines, with tart passionfruit, plenty of acidity, and light wild yeast. Acidic and fruity. Good stuff.

On tap at Tip Tap Room, pours a hazy golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out light kiwi and a touch of lacto. Flavour is sweet and sour, with lots of acidic kiwi and acetic notes. Not constructed too well - harsh and stomach-churning. Okay.

On tap at The Ginger Man - Boston, pours a deep dark red with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out fresh tart raspberries, with light oak and some wild yeast. Flavour brings out a ton of intensely tart raspberry pith, along with yogurt, and a bit of oak. Very pithy and yogurty. Highly acidic and rather stomach-churning. It's alright.

Bottle shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Pours a clearish gold with a small head that dissipates quickly. Lime forward nose with light pineapple and citrus aromas. Clean and crisp with more lime, funky tartness and more dried pineapple. Tart on the palate, with a refreshing hoppy, lime finish.

Bottle shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Pours a cloudy, deep gold with a finger of foam that lingers. Lovely strawberry jam forward nose with light lemon and lacto notes. Slight grainy texture on the palate, light seed and skin astringency. Lots of young strawberry flesh sweetness and tartness. Clean and crisp on the palate, and finishes slighly tart and dry. Enjoyed this one a lot.

Beautiful color and pour. Great aronia berry flavor (not going to pretend I know what that is supposed to taste like but it tastes good). Slightly tart, mellowed sweetness with a tiny bite of sour at the end.

Bottle shared at State of Origin bottle share. Pours a clearish gold with a finger of foam that dissipates. Tart lemon and guava really permeate the nose. Smooth, but with a fairly tart profile on the palate. Some grainy texture and more guava, dried citrus, light funk and some astringency from possibly the skin of the fruit. Very enjoyable.
