Amundsen Bryggeri

A decadent sensory journey, this Wild Specialty Beer pours with an intensely vibrant, opaque violet-purple hue. Aromas of freshly baked vanilla muffins, brown sugar, and rich, jammy blueberries leap from the glass, underpinned by a lactic tartness. The palate is treated to a lush, dessert-like experience where concentrated blueberry puree flavors meld with sweet cake-like malt and a touch of cinnamon spice. A clean, refreshing acidity balances the initial doughy sweetness, keeping this pastry sour remarkably drinkable despite its rich profile. The mouthfeel is thick and velvety, delivering a sumptuous, liquid pastry finish.

Appearance. Deep violet-purple, completely opaque with a thick, smoothie-like consistency. Pours with a dense, pinkish-purple head that shows moderate retention and leaves a vibrant, colorful lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity aroma dominated by luscious jammy blueberry and sweet pastry notes. Prominent doughy muffin, vanilla, and maple syrup characteristics are layered over a clean, sharp lactic acidity. Very low hop aroma and no notable wild funk, focusing instead on the dessert and fruit adjuncts.

Taste. Bold initial impression of sweet blueberry compote, followed immediately by cake batter, vanilla, and graham cracker malt flavors. The mid-palate introduces a sharp, bright lactic sourness that cuts through the rich sweetness. Zero hop bitterness. The finish is balanced between a lingering berry sweetness and a refreshing, tart acidity.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full to full-bodied, thick, and velvety with a smooth, coating texture. Carbonation is moderate to low, providing just enough lift to temper the heavy fruit weight. Alcohol warmth is very mild and well-integrated.
