Barrique Brewing and Blending Basique Poire
Sour Ale 6.2 º
Basique Poire is a refined Straight Sour Beer that showcases the integration of Tennessee-grown Keiffer Pears within a bright, acidic framework. The sensory profile opens with a sharp, clean lactic sourness, immediately followed by the delicate, floral, and slightly honeyed character of the hand-processed pears. A foundation of pale malts provides subtle crackery and bready notes, balancing the high acidity. Effervescent and crisp, the palate reveals nuances of tart lemon and green apple, characteristic of the style’s fruity esters. The finish is remarkably dry and refreshing, highlighting the pure orchard fruit essence and a sophisticated, well-integrated fermentation profile.
Appearance. Very pale straw (2-3 SRM). Large, dense white head with poor retention. Slight haze from fruit addition, otherwise highly effervescent with visible rising carbonation.
Aroma. High intensity. Sharp lactic sourness dominates, complemented by a distinct floral pear character. Subtle biscuity and crackery malt notes lie underneath. Moderate fruity esters of tart apple and lemon; clean fermentation without any hop aroma or Brettanomyces funk.
Taste. Strong, clean lactic sourness is the primary impression. Light bready and grainy malt flavors support a pronounced Keiffer pear fruitiness. Undetectable hop bitterness and no hop flavor. Notable citrus-lemony acidity. The finish is bone-dry and crisp with a lingering tart fruit aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Light body with high, sparkling carbonation. A subtle, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present. Sharp, crisp acidity provides a refreshing, mouth-watering sensation without being bitingly harsh or astringent.
