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”.

Canned@Rex, Umeå. Orangeish golden colour with a small off-white foamy head. Aroma is fruity, floral, some mild lemongrass, nectar and mild malts to it. Flavour pretty much has the same elements in a very nice balance. Smooth and pleasant, with a high refreshing kick to it.

Bottled. Hazy goldeny orange colour with a mediumsized creamy longlasting white head, which leaves some lace. Aroma is fruity, some mild alcohol, spices, yeast and mild funk with some wooden notes. Flavour is also having the same elements in a rather nice balance. Pleasant, and actually for once a rather true to the style old school triple. Yum!

Corked and capped 375 mL bottle, 12/29/22. No sign of the age on the bottle. First rating in 55 months or so. Could be I have a new vintage, but, more likely a dead website. Think I got this at State Line Liquors, but not sure. Dark orangebrown, thin tan head, poor retention. Aroma of sweet grape, toffee, oak, pepper. Almost tastes like a mead or a cocktail. Taste is oak, cherry, vinegar, wine, dark fruit, pepper. Slick, full bodied, bright, strong tartness. Nice.

Amber color, good khaki and pitted head. Aroma has some nice floral tones, lightly nutty and caramel candy. Toasted malt flavors up front, with some candied fruit notes (peach?). Light floral hop flavors and a medium bitterness at finish feels a touch resiny. Sweet to semi-sweet overall profile. Excellent version of a marzen.
