This Wild Specialty Beer is a sophisticated collision of high-gravity brewing and lactic complexity, showcasing the distinct character of Alvinne’s Morpheus yeast. The sensory profile is defined by a bright, tangy acidity and deep stone fruit esters. The extensive dry-hopping process introduces vibrant layers of resinous citrus and tropical zest, bridging the gap between a sour ale and a Double IPA. Despite its 8% strength, the beer remains nimble, with the hop-derived bitterness softened by a sharp lactic tang. It culminates in a dry, aromatic finish that highlights the intersection of wild funk and floral intensity.
