Almanac Berry Sournova
Fruit Lambic 5.3 º
Almanac Berry Sournova is a vibrant Wild Specialty Beer that captures a summer harvest within an oak-aged framework. This effervescent ale presents a complex melange of blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries, creating a kaleidoscopic fruit profile that balances sharp acidity with the rounded, creamy sweetness of real vanilla beans. Aging in oak barrels imparts a subtle structural depth and soft woody undertones that temper the bright lactic tartness. The result is a refreshing, sparkling sensory experience where the intense berry character is harmonized by a delicate vanilla finish and a clean, puckering dryness that invites another sip.
Appearance. Displays a stunning deep pink to reddish-purple hue (SRM 15–20) with a slight natural haze. Pours with a fizzy, light-pink head that dissipates quickly to a thin collar, typical of acidic wild ales, leaving minimal lacing.
Aroma. High intensity with a dominant bouquet of fresh-crushed raspberries and jammy strawberries. Subtle floral notes from blueberries emerge alongside a distinct creamy vanilla sweetness and a faint, toasted oak background. Low earthy funk and a clean, sharp lactic acidity provide a bright, inviting nose.
Taste. Immediate, bright lactic tartness leads into a layered fruit profile of tart raspberries and blueberries. The mid-palate introduces strawberry sweetness moderated by the smooth, rounding influence of vanilla beans. Hop bitterness is absent, allowing the fruit acidity and soft oak tannins to drive the dry, crisp finish with a lingering berry essence.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a lively, high carbonation that feels prickly and refreshing on the tongue. Alcohol warmth is negligible. A very slight tannic astringency from the fruit skins and oak barrel adds structure without becoming harsh.
