Got this from my mother who bought at the brewery more than a year ago. It was said to be best after a year of aging. So there we go...
Pours a murky copper with a minimum head that reduces to a rim immediately. Fine carbonation visible.
O-oh immediately brett in the nose. The tartness is nice and accentuates a fruity aroma that reminds me of apricot. Maybe some biscuit malt.
Taste is also clearly tart, fruity, funky, boozy. Malt body is there but hidden behind the funk. A crazy combination of a sour like Rodenbach and your typical southern German / Austrian Bockbier.
Medium body, little tickling
Oh my this makes me laugh. This brewery and Austria in general is so not ready for sour beers yet this is a beautifully delicious and restrained example what a little brett infection can do. If someone of the brewery reads this, I challenge them to try this again, because with its very accessable tartness this could be a kickstarter for sour beers in Austria
