FERMÆNTRA

this is an interesting one, on tap at first draft in rino, its sort of a weird hybrid, some english elements and some belgian ones oddly enough, but it comes together rather well if this is what you like, a maltier light drinking beer thats got some real yeast character and less of the hops. its got some haze, and is darker than expected for a beer presented as a blonde ale in some corners of the internet. lightly copper colored even extremely active on the head, pure white, and with a neat aroma that has some english bready and also belgian fruity notes, its a hard one to place and the taste doesnt make it any easier! sort of floral to start, not without its hops, but this appears to be a phenomenon of the yeast, light grassy and peppery notes, some malt heft, bran muffin, raisin, but not real sweet, and sort of english in character from a grain perspective. esters in the finish make it more belgian again, biscuit notes, light dried fruits, medium body. its a curious little beer, not perfectly in balance, but in line with some of the others i have had from these guys. quite distinct, and well enough put together. not aware of any quite like it, but that didnt make me love it...
