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 in Winter Park with jcnielsen. Thanks Justin! Hazy, red, violet-tinged appearance with a thin off white head. This smells delicious. Tons of wild cherries, light funk, pie, and some lactic acid. Light body. Pretty low sweetness. Low bitterness. Mild to medium tartness. The flavor is cherry in the forefront with some cheese, funk, oak, and strawberries. Finishes dry, funky, and fruity. It’s not perfect but this is a really great sour cherry beer.

Sample during Jackie O’s 10th Anniversary Extravaganza on 12/04/2015. Hazy golden color with a medium white head that recedes steadily. Stringy lacing. The aroma is mildly funky yeast and fruit along with some malt. Light-bodied with flavors of grassy yeast, fruit and malt. The finish is funky yeast and fruit. Decent overall.
