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.

Poured/gushed from a 750 ml bottle. Super gusher. Aroma is fairly fruity with some lighter citrus notes. Medium light phenolics with a bit of a grassy note. Light grain character with light oak. A bit of blackberry. Pours a hazy reddish orange with a huge, frothy white head that slowly recedes to a thin film that lingers for quite a bit. Moderately high lacing and no legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with a light acidity. Some light grain notes. Light berry notes with a moderate grassy, herbal phenolic note. Light oak notes. Light bitterness. A bit of a floral and honey note with a bit of citrus. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with tons of carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a weird beer and way overcatbonated. The berry notes are very light, but the other fruit notes from the yeast come through very well. A bit of oxidation and honey notes.
