Description
Bullfrog Brewery is a proudly independent and multiple award-winning craft microbrewery, brewpub, and eatery nestled comfortably in the vibrant heart of downtown Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Born of fortuitous circumstance and ambitious aspiration, we opened in August of 1996 with a committed 'focal on local' philosophy and a simple yet lofty goal ... to be the place that people need to spend time, to brew beers that people need to have in their life, to offer food that people need to eat, to offer live music that people need to hear, and to be the place that our beloved staff need to work. Bullfrog beers are renowned far and wide, especially our artfully-crafted, barrel-aged wild ales such as Le Roar Grrrz and Rood Bruin. Here at "The Frog," we celebrate life by creating outstanding and memorable beers, food, friendships, and moments.

At a tasting, many thanks, smallish bubbly head, murky deep purple color, aroma of wood, leather and some winey hints, plums and a hint of waffle, flavor of acetone, lightish dark fruits and vinous notes, mellow bitterness, lightish sourness. Very nice, highly enjoyable.

375 ml bottle from Mikkeller webshop, bottled March 2016.
Golden, clear body, with a small, yellowish head.
Aroma of wood, white wine, grapes, green apples, citrus, some funk, some vinegar.
Tastes similar, with more wooden barrel notes.
Medium, slick mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes dry, wooden, slightly acidic, a bit sweet, vinous, with green apples, grapes, some citrus.
Tasty. Maybe not as complex as a real Belgian Lambic, but still lovely and well balanced, with quite dominant wooden notes and the grapes leading to some elegant sweetness. I would prefer a bit more funk notes though. Overall really fresh and crisp to drink, while not my favourite one by Bullfrog.
Score: 8 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 16
