Savoir-Vivre 10°: Brettanomyces is a Belgian Tripel gone wild. It pours a dark amber color with a light haze with aromas of pie crust, brown sugar, honey with other sweet aromatics, citronella, lavender and some rose, apricot and pineapple, barnyard, clove & biscuit.

This one pours dark orange, with a huge fluffy and creamy looking white head, with lots of lacing.
The Brett infusion has dominated the aroma in a very pleasant way – there’s lemon candy, stone fruit, the general vibe of farm animals, in a good way, and hay.
This is really funky, and really unique to the Rochester area – this tastes like something that Lodgsdon or Russian River would do, nothing like anything a Rochester brewery would do, and I love it. The base tripel is strong, and tastes great – but the addition of Brettanomyces has definitely transformed this. There’s the nice honey and stone fruit I’d expect from the base beer, with floral and tea like tones, sweet lemon candy, clove, white pepper, cheese, hay, and barnyard. This is definitely bodacious, but not overwhelmingly funky – it works really well.
This is medium bodied, fairly creamy, and pretty strongly carbonated. It’s drinkable, but definitely intense, so it’s a long journey to the end of the glass.
This is one of the most unique and interesting beers to come out of the Rochester market in a long time.
