With Culture Project 3 the malts and hops used are very similar to Culture Project I. The big difference here is that we used a lager yeast strain for primary fermentation. The purpose for this is that lager fermentation is slower than ale fermentation (For Culture I we used Saison ale strain) which gives us more control over when we introduce the other (wild) bugs. We introduced the Brettanomyces, Lacto, & Pedio when there was still enough sugar left so they would have some food to metabolize and create acid & flavor compounds. Which, allowed us to achieve the desired acidity and flavors we were seeking. We also aged this beer for almost twice as long as culture I (over 24 months).
The result is an extremely complex beer with a reddish/amber hue and pleasant acidity. Notes of dark cherry, fig, stone fruit, tropical fruit, & oak.

On-tap at Fulton Beer, Minneapolis, MN
A: The beer is relatively clear amber yellow in color and has no visible carbonation. It poured with a minuscule white head that quickly faded away.
S: Moderate roams of sourness and oak are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and has flavors of vanilla-like oak with some sourness.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied and a little smooth on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This is a very interesting sour beer. I liked the oaky and vanilla flavors.
Serving type: on-tap
