Rating number 8,000! Wanted this to be a special brew, so I picked the number one rated Sour / Wild - Flavored beer on RateBeer. 500 ml bottle from Tavour. Blend 13 from July 2023. Pours a clear, deep ruby red color. Creamy pink head settles to a small cap. Aroma is raspberries on steroids. Some mild funkiness. Big sour fruit flavor is initially a shock to the taste buds. After the raspberry flavor explosion, flavor becomes more manageable. Some farmhouse funk, tangy malt and sticky fruit. Dryish finish. Wonderfully intense! On to 9,000….

Undated can drunk 11/12/24. Clear, light blonde with a bit of brass. Large, frothy, white head, good retention. Matchstick from Riwaka is nice and minerally. Lemon zest, nectarine, kiwi, all sorts of complex stone and tropical fruits, really. Honey-like malts balance gently. Soft and malty in the mouth with a bit of bread and biscuit matching the soft, succulent honey. White grape, white peach, tons more stone fruit and zesty tropical fruit. The carbonation does suffer a bit from being both languid and seemingly forced. But the hops are wonderfully done with absolutely no punch. Could use a bit more bitterness and crisp lager character on the finish, though.

Aromas are crackers, malt, floral and spice. Flavors are similar to nose, excellent balance between bitter, sweet and crisp carbonation. Bittersweet finish. Refreshing and satisfying. True to style. Wish I had more.
