Description
Temporal Artisan Ales is a brewing project that is crafting delicate oak-aged beers in a shared space at Luppolo Brewing Company in Vancouver, BC. The beers we create are fermented 100% in our oak barrels over lengthy periods of time, imparting delicate complexity. Portions of separate barrels are blended to enhance specific characteristics unique to each barrel. Every beer we release has been meticulously crafted from start to finish.

Hazy, beige. Light tartness. Hints of berry and stone fruit. I'm not super familiar with pinot blanc so the fruit's coming across as other things.

Cinnamon, vanilla and nutmeg, along with dark sugars. Dark brown colour, of course. The body is a bit light, but it's not bad. I think I avoided this because I'm not into chocolate orange but of course I don't really get much orange here so I'm happy.

Bottle pour at Farmhouse Fest 2023, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is full of amburana upfront, followed by rum and gentle sugars. Flavour is full of amburana wood upfront, accentuated by a touch of rum, bourbon and dark sugars. Amburana steals the show. Very nice stuff.

Bottle pour at Farmhouse Fest 2023, pours a deep dark brown / black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out intense chocolate orange, booze, and bourbon barrels. Flavour is boozy, with lots of chocolate orange, booze, and gentle bourbon. Boozy and orangey, rather messy and lacking integration but pleasant enough. Good.

Bottle pour at Farmhouse Fest 2023, pours a cloudy dull peachy golden with a small white head. Aroma is very earthy, with lots of earthy, juicy rhubarb, and some juicy stone fruits. Flavour is full of juicy rhubarb, tons of the gentian root, with wild yeast. Spicy, earthy and juicy. A bit confused and messy but has some pleasant notes for sure. Good but not that well calibrated.

Bottle pour at Farmhouse Fest 2023, pours a cloudy bright golden with a small white head. Aroma is fairly acidic, with white wine grape skins, plenty of acidity, and rustic saison yeast. Flavour is quite acidic and messy, with lots of acidity, rustic notes and stone fruits. Seems a bit messy and lacking integration. It's alright.

A taster shared with Josh, Matt, Phill, and Ryan during FHF WITHOUT priceless Rachel's help in organizing all the mess with glasses. Appearance: hazy pale golden with a white head. Aroma: funky, fermented grapes. Taste: same, a bit acidic than I would prefer. Overall: pretty good.

Poured from 330mL bottle. Very dark brown with small beige head. Vanilla, tons of woody herbal notes, feint bourbon - quite a burnt marshmallow note here. Not a big fan, but it's quite interesting and has some nice complexities.
