Description

Mixed culture, Oak fermented Beer. Brewed and blended in Vermont.

Freak Folk Bier has been years in the making. Conceptualized by two professional brewers looking to explore their creative instincts and to escape the monotony of the typical brewery lifestyle and mentality. This is our attempt to have complete control over how our beer is brewed, fermented and presented to our local community. Our goal is to remain a humble little company and to grow organically.

We strive to present world class wild and farmhouse- inspired beer to an ever growing community of beer and wine enthusiasts to share and contemplate.

Admin Note: Freak Folk Bier is brewed at Queen City and then aged in wooden vessels. The brand was started by Queen City's head brewer Lillian MacNamara and Ryan Miller of Aqua ViTea Kombucha in Middlebury, VT.

Permanent taproom opened in Waterbury, VT.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of bugs, rustic saison yeast, and a touch of oak. Flavour is fairly grainy, with rustic saison yeast, some huskiness in the malts, and a touch of oak. Only a touch of tartness on the finish. Nice yeast profile, but just a little rough. Good.

750ml @ Ryan's (thx for the beer!).
Aroma: nice bugs and farmhouse notes, a bit fruity.
Taste: along the same lines, a bit lemony, buggy. Good body.
Overall: it's good, but kinda misses the sharpness and intensity.

Poured from 750mL bottle (thanks Derek & JF). Hazy yellow with small white head. Mild oak, interesting mixed ferm culture, feint floral honey character in the background, okay. The helles/witbier mixed culture come across slightly muted.

Pours a hazy, lemon-banana yellow, with smallish head. Aroma is a touch dank, with citrus and tropical fruit. Flavors follow, with a touch of white wine spice to the finish. Soft, smooth mouthfeel. Moderate hop bitterness through the finish.

Bottle in VT. Nice acetic twang about it, leathery berries, sturdy acidity, earth, mellow funk, old moist wood, cherry, raspberry. Quenching. Good depth.
