The Spontaneous Ferment: 5 Year Blend from Garden Path Fermentation (Burlington, United States 🇺🇸)

8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8

I placed this in "untraditional" for lack of anything else to call it - it's a blend, but I wouldn't call it a gueuze. Anyway, I had it on tap at Great Northern (RIP). Hazy, pale tan. Thin head. Earthy and buggy, good lambicish character. Honey floral notes but lots of acidity. Good complexity and body, too.

The Twisted Branch Out from Garden Path Fermentation (Burlington, United States 🇺🇸)

8.1/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8.5

Pale, slight haze. Juicy, pithy, beautiful brett, floral, great pale malt backbone is just enough. This comes together execeptionally well.

Sticky Hands - #14: The Kine from Block 15 Brewing Company (Corvallis, United States 🇺🇸)

7.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5

Big malt base, medium hop, rich and resiny, light orange and grapefruit. Honestly, this was probably different from the one released two years ago, but I'm not sure I want to try to unpack that. It was released again this spring, but I didn't get a number on it.

Deep gold, full pale malt character. Moderate bitterness. Good balance, would not mind more hop brightness.
