Description
Horus Aged Ales is a 100% barrel aged brewery located in Oceanside, California. We believe in pushing the boundaries on how much beer can evolve through resting in oak by using a variety of different wine and spirit barrels, adding exotic fruits, and fermenting spontaneously. The complexity of the beer portrays our passion for experimentation and patience required to produce such a unique beverage. Horus has been a decade long dream that is finally coming true and we look forward to introducing our exclusive beer to the fine people of San Diego County.

Draught at MBCC 2018, red session.
Pale orange, moderate hazy body, with a small, yellowish head.
Aroma of peach, funk, lemon, some apples, slight vinegar.
Tastes pretty similar.
Medium, slick mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes moderate sour, a bit sweet, a bit dry, a bit wooden, with lingering peach.

Very nice. Lots of peach, but still not too dominant, leaving room for nice funky and other fruit notes. Well balanced, fresh to drink. Not outstanding, but, really lovely.

Fat på MBCC 2018, grönt pass. Orangerosa, disig med vitt smutsigt skum. I doften främst sött med massor av torkade plommon. Medelstor kropp med mycket fatkaraktär. Smaken bryter av och överraskar med syrlig plommonkompott och riktigt mycket syrlighet från plommonkärnor. Det här var riktigt bra! Superfin kärnsyra som gifter sig perfekt med plommonen.
