Description
Beachwood Blendery is a small batch beer producer established in 2014 by the same creative minds behind the award winning Beachwood Brewing. Beachwood Blendery has embarked on an undoubtedly geeky quest to recreate the Lambic style beers of Belgium. Our beers are produced using ingredients, equipment, and brewing methods that are both steeped in tradition and admittedly modern.

500ml on Brian's deck. Appearance: hazy straw with a weak white head. Aroma: funky and nice fruity character. Taste: along the same lines, quite acidic, though. Overall: ok.

500mL bottle, pours a hazy dark purpleish red iwth a small white head. Aroma reveals subdued funk, tart dark berries, and gentle floral notes. Flavour doesn't seem like a lambic at all, but the fruit character is nice, with tart, dry dark berries, some brett, and oak. Not a lambic, but it's a really nice sour fruit ale. Very good.

Medium purple, no head. This has some brett C up front, and then a clean boysenberry character. On the palate it's mostly sweet boysenberry, with a tart note, then some fairly straightforward tartness.

500mL bottle, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma is full of acidic notes, bright apricots, and subdued funk. Flavour is full of muted apricots, light funk, earthy notes. Just an all-round murky, muted character to this. Good, but the base beer is much better.

Pale, slight haze. There's a nice apricot aroma to this, with some barrel accents. On the palate, it's got a lot of tartness, wood, and a touch of sweet apricot. It's pretty tart, brett C, and strongly acidic in the finish.

500mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma reveals moderate funk, a little oak, and some wild yeast. Flavour is fairly peppery, with gentle funk, some white pepper, and a little oak. Gentle acidity, finishing peppery and funky. Not exactly like an authentic gueuze, but it does have a nice funk to it. Good stuff.
