Description
Tras pasar por la experiencia Gora Craft Beer como cerveceros nómadas, decidimos centrarnos más en las pruebas que estábamos haciendo en el garaje, trabajando la fruta de temporada, fermentaciones mixtas y espontáneas y zumos fermentados.
Así nació Meta Edabeak. “Meta” Significa en euskera “almiar”, un amontonamiento de hierba para animales para el invierno. Este método se está perdiendo en las granjas, al igual que la rama de cervezas Farmhouse. Y “Edabeak” en euskera significa “brebajes”, haciendo referencia a las pruebas que haremos con sidra, zumos fermentados, hidromiel y otros.

Intense aroma full of fresh grain and funk. Light lime citrus. Somewhat light bodied, thinnish is the only downside.

Tap at Winter Affair '25. Notes are brief. 2023 version if I can read them properly. The grapes here are not over the top, the overall balance is subtle, elegant. A very good beer.

Tap at Winter Affair '25. Notes are brief. The fig leaves are cleanly present and it is weird, but good. Very herbal feeling overall, dry, kinda flowery too. I works well.

Tap at Winter Affair 2025. Clear paaale yellow body. Breaty, earthy, herbal aroma, bit dry. Spicy taste, cherry pit, bit bretty, fruity-herbal touches, soft. Unique, odd, really glad to have tried it, even if I didn't love the profile!

Tap at Winter Affair 2025. Almost clear golden body, white head. Funky, dry, peppery aroma, light grapes maybe, not its strongest point. Dry taste, very pleasant white grapee notes, lean, light overall, sweetish, ending a bit tart. I was pretty strict with my rate at first, but it did grow on me.

Draft @ El Birrot - Meta night.
Claire, col blanc fin crémeux blanc.
Arôme sur un bouquet fruité assez plsiant avec la pomme qui perce bien tout comme l'abricot qui reste frais et tranche avec le reste plus acidulé. Ce dernier se démarque encor eplus après un bon 30min à t° ambiante.
Palais tend à me rappeler l'usage d'une levure de cidre tant ce côté pomme / cidre perdure. Le tout reste positionner sur une note âcre et aigre amrqué, peut-être rehaussé par le kiwi un une fine doucuer pulpeuse d'abricot qui perce en retrait. Le tout navique entre douceur et aigreur. Sur la fin, je note un retour discret d'un malt pils tout en maintenant un caractère cidre, fine sécheresse de fin de bouche avec l'abricot qui revient pour accompagner le tout.
