Description
In August of 2005, the first jack hammer went into the ground in the empty warehouse in Pleasantville, New York, that was to become the living dream of our founder Scott Vaccaro. We brewed our first batch of beer in December of 2005. In December of 2011 we moved to Elmsford, finished construction of our new brewery, brewed our first batch of beer, and slowly shut down our old location. In 2014 we decided that it was time, after 9 years of making sour and wild ales, to take it to the next level by opening our new sour ale production wing, lovingly dubbed the “Fermento Funk Facility”.

Cask days 2016. Very tangy citrus, upfront lemon, and Orange zest, with some nice sour notes. Some wet hay, and wet grass, slight wet paper. Finish is quite tart, but not sour. Oranges and lemons abound, loads of citrus oil, and zest. Quite nice.

Cask days 2016.
A good double ipa, nothing more to see here. Solid citrus, big fresh hop Cone punch in the aroma. With some big background pine. Malts are slightly bready with hints of yeast. Not awful, but pretty run of the mill when it comes to double ipas.

Bottle. Clear golden pour, with a large, Rocky head. Aroma is yeast, tropical fruit, light lemon oil, biscuity malts. Soft mouth feel, lively carb. Low bitterness, crisp tropical fruit and cereals, very trippelish in the finish without the alcohol.
