Description
Fonta Flora Brewery integrates the soul of agriculture with the artisanship of zymurgy to create a menagerie of rustic and savory libations. With an emphasis on seasonal flora, Fonta Flora brings English tradition and Belgian inspiration to the Appalachian mountains of North Carolina.

Fonta Flora utilizes local artists to help conceptualize the notion that fermentation is yet another medium for creating art. This uniquely artisan approach to beer yields a sustainable product filled with culture from our very own community.

Bottle @Luppolo Station (Rome). Dorata, limpida, brillante, schiuma bianca leggera, mediamente persistente. Al naso note floreali, citriche, vinose. In bocca è acida media, citrica, ma con un suo bilanciamento, leggermente tart, secca, pulita, discretamente rotonda, leggermente minerale, man mano che si scalda diventa sempre più rotonda, equilibrata e vinosa. Corpo medio, carbonazione media. Molto gradevole, complimenti davvero.

Good, if a tad sweet. Notes of cracker, fresh corn, and a touch of lemon, followed by a briny back end that offsets the sweetness. Finishes with a modest floral bitterness. Not bad.

Can at LSU tasting: pours sort of hazy with white head. Aroma is lemony and floral. Taste is clean, dry and very lightly bitter.

Can from Tavour. Pours dirty hazy gold with a large foamy white head. Aroma is mixed fruit with a touch of honey. Med body. It's juicy and not very sweet. Nor is it very bitter. Yet it has something besides a honey note. There seems to be white berry, garlic and earth. In the finish it seems rather dry. Interesting flavor.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear and darkly ruddy with a moderate tan head that didn't try to persist. Aroma of lightly roasty malt. Med body. Malty/roasty and not dry, but barely sweetish. There's some bitterness that seems to come from Noble hop - the spice is there, but the grass not so much. Quite tasty.

Canned 12/22/25, drunk 2/28/26.
Cherry wood and Schilling?! Sign me up!
There's a bit of a fruitiness that could easily be the cherry wood, but you'd never know it blind. Cocoa and vanilla mix with base malt to give white bread and honey to balance. Low acidity, low hop, light minerality. Clean and seemingly crisp.
Nice and malty with a floral, woody, cherry-like character and lots of cocoa. Not sure I love the woody floral character of the cherry wood, to be honest, but it certainly is unique and interesting. Regardless, the malt here is fairly deep and satisfying, with the beer drying out on the finish. Super low roast/bitterness. Very drinkable and interesting, for sure.

16 oz can. Aroma is earthy with cocoa and roasted hints. Flavor is similar with bold base malt, and soft sweetness in the finish. Coffee tones. Light mineral character. The mouthfeel has a dryness and ends lightly earthy. Amazing malt depth. Layered flavor.

Easy-drinking (if mildly potent) WCIPA, with a melon-white grape-tropical punch hoppiness offset by a modest pine-mineral bitterness and lingering grape in the finish. Good but a little more bitter edge would be nice.
