Bacchanalia Pinot Noir is a complex, vinous Brett Beer that marries the rustic funk of spontaneous fermentation with the elegant fruit profile of Pinot Noir grapes. The pour reveals a striking ruby-hued body topped by a modest foam. The nose is highly aromatic, presenting a blend of wild barnyard funk, damp hay, and leathery character alongside vibrant notes of dark cherry and crushed berries. On the palate, it is remarkably dry and crisp, showcasing wood-driven structure from oak aging. Subtle tannins and a light acidity accentuate the lingering vinous finish, making for a sophisticated and deeply layered sensory experience.
Appearance.SRM 12–18 (deep copper to ruby-rose); moderate to low head retention with a light pinkish tint; slight haze is present from spontaneous fermentation.
Aroma.High intensity; dominant Brettanomyces character of wet hay, earthy leather, and mild barnyard funk; layered with Pinot Noir grape notes of cherry, raspberry, and a vinous fruitiness; subtle oak-derived vanilla and wood spice; low bready malt.
Taste.Initial impression is bone dry and vinous; fruity Pinot Noir flavors of tart cherry and dark berries meld with earthy, spicy Brett funk; very low hop bitterness; fermentation character is complex with light non-lactic acidity; finish is long, dry, and wood-inflected with moderate complexity.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a crisp, highly attenuated texture; high carbonation providing a lively prickle; light tannic astringency from oak and grape skins; very low alcohol warmth.
