An adjunct-heavy golden ale dosed with our house mixed culture and refermented in French oak before being racked onto 1.5lb/gal of boysenberries for maturation and conditioning. Rich flavors of berry pie filling and fruit leather are balanced by vanilla and tannins from the oak.

Moon Burn, part of the Wild & Wood series, was a limited, SoPro Taproom-only release in Dec. 2017, bottle-only, except for a surprise keg on Labor Day Weekend 2018. Had that weekend at the Taproom on draft into tulip, and later poured from a 16.9-oz. bottle into a Teku tulip 3.0.
Pours a beautiful deep purple, with clarity first pour and murky when bottle dumped, and nearly 1-finger, very light-pink, bubbly head, which quickly dissipates to a persistent ring, but does, however, leave some sketchy lace. Huge aroma off pour of Tabasco-infused cocktail sauce, with tart fruit soon taking over for the duration. On drinking, begins mildly tart, then mild Tabasco, and lots of cranberry juice (I guess that's the boysenberries), then more primarily bitter tartness, with a little cracker malt peeking through, over a nice fruit juice body, before a clean, mildly tart, drying finish.
The aroma of this gorgeous wild ale is astonishing: Tabasco-infused cocktail sauce, ready for oysters on the half shell, and tart fruit. On drinking, this beer is not as intimidating--less Tabasco and lots more berry--but it is still very entertaining.
