Farmhouse Sour Ale with Black Currants & Black Currant Leaves Aged in Oak Brandy Barrels. 375ml.
Pours a brilliant ruby hue with a soft pink head. Uniquely aromatic with notes of floral tea, leather, berries - almost woodsy in character. The flavour is tart and reminiscent of strawberry fruit roll-ups! Vinous oak and brandy in the background with an array of fruit flavours; currants, raspberry, gooseberry, cherry. Very dry, light funk and a bit of minerality in the finish.

Bottle: Poured a reddish color ale with a large foamy head with medium retention and light lacing notes. Aroma of tart notes with strong blackberry notes with some oak notes also noticeable. Taste is mix of tart notes with some funky Brett notes with some dominant black currant notes and a light acidic finish. Body is about average with good carbonation. Nice fruity tart ale with good level of complexity.
