Confluence is a blend of two barrels from Wander’s barrel program (Flanders Red, Spontaneous fermented project) and three barrels from Aslan’s (Flanders Red, Brett Saison, Brett Pilsner). Combined, these barrels created a beer unlike anything either brewery has produced. The dark cherry notes of the Flanders Reds are brightened by lemon and pineapple from the Brett. Confluence starts out with sharp acidity, followed by expressive carbonation, and then mellows into a berry medley on the back end. This beer is a celebration of spring and times out perfectly between our respective breweries’ 7th anniversaries.

Served in 12oz flute. Poured a cloudy dark orange-light brown color with less than 1/2 inch of off-white head that had moderate retention and low lacing.

A bright tartness started off the aroma, with some wood, fruit, yeast, and funk following along.

Same on the tongue, just bigger, bolder and more in every aspect.

The body was on the thin side of medium, was a bit spiky across the tongue, carried good carbonation throughout, and had a very dry finish.

Drinkability was good, but it's a sipper, and I probably wouldn't want two in a row.

Overall, quite an interesting brew. Get some if you see it.
