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.

Can at DC Beer August Share. Poured a hazy golden-yellow. Flavor was lemon and melon with a creamy body. Refreshing light grain with some resin notes.

Pricey single from Appalachian. Seems like a running joke. I think the born on is 4/06/25 but it's cut off. Fonta blames their old print machine. Brought this across the state for a tasting & we never got to it. Sat it back down in the fridge for another couple weeks.

Pint glass at home.
Dusty brown ale with a tall, lightly tan head.
Smells of sour, sharp berries, earthy malt, wheat leaf drop.
Bittersharp & tart upfront, sharp raspberries, long & decadent peanut butter powder, hint of chocolate malt, no oil. Real fruit. After a bit, the peanut washes off & you can taste some red berries in your cheeks, but it isn't in your face obvious raspberry. Off-sweet. Lingering tartness & mellow earthy bitterness.
Thin body, medium high carb, medium high acid, slightly milky & dusty.

Kinda good. Maybe a touch too acidy.

Cloudy pale yellow with small head. Lime, pineapple, orange, biscuit malt, and earthy grapefruit peel aroma. Very sweet lime, pineapple, orange, biscuit malt, and moderately bitter grapefruit peel flavor. Good body. A bit too sweet.

Fresh four pack picked up on my way to Chapel Hill for an old man's tasting.

Clear, pale honey gold, dirty head.
Nose is honey nut Cheerios, sweet pine & muted citrus rind.
Melded candied citrus, menthol, lots of Cheerios. Lingering dry pine. Nothing really punches.
Super thin, bright, sorta low carb, low acid, easy abv.

A little boring but sloshable.
