Collaboration with Third Moon Brewing Company
The base beer is a lightly smoked grisette. Very light smoke, Belgian derived phenolics and light farmhouse character from the Brettanomyces form the base of the beer. The black Garlic was added post ferment and is rich in earthy, umami notes as well as touches of balsamic and honey. This incredibly unique beer was a collaboration with our friends over at Third Moon Brewing in Milton.

Bottle: Poured a clear golden color ale with a large foamy head with OK retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of mushroom, strong garlic notes with hints of smoked isn’t that pleasant. Taste is a mxi of storing mushroom notes with some sweet garlic notes, some grainy notes with hints of smoke. Body is about average with good carbonation. Split the bottle multiple ways but could still not drink my share. Terrible beer.

16oz bottle served in a tulip. Don't see a date on it. @Coronaeus sent it to me in a LIF associated with NBS BIF #14.
Pours a hazy light amber with a moderately sized head and a TON of carbonation that sustains it with peaks around the half centimeter level. Smell is light smoke, yeast, light graininess, I think I get some garlic, smells very savory.
Taste is strongly smokey (but not overwhelming), somewhat woody, moderate sweetness, garlic doesn't come across on its own as a distinct flavor, but it kind of builds up some umami with the smokiness. Moderate bitterness that makes me think of char.
Mouthfeel is light, effervescent, with a slight filminess. Overall, this is a good beer, and it's very interesting.
