Cascade Brewing Blackberry Ale (2007)
Fruit Lambic 5.4 º
Drawing inspiration from the Belgian Flanders Style Red Ale, this vintage wild ale showcases the vibrant essence of Northwest Blackberries through six months of lactic fermentation and oak aging. The sensory experience is defined by a sharp, clean lactic acidity that brightens the deep, dark berry notes. Subtle oak tannins and a whisper of vanilla from the wood provide structural complexity, balancing the intense fruit character. As a bottle-fermented selection, it presents a lively carbonation that lifts the vinous qualities of the malt base, resulting in a complex, refreshing, and deeply aromatic profile that emphasizes local fruit and wild fermentation mastery.
Appearance. Deep burgundy to dark reddish-purple in color; pours with a modest pink-tinted head with fair retention and fine lacing; clarity is slightly hazy due to the heavy fruit addition and bottle conditioning.
Aroma. High intensity with a dominant fresh blackberry character and jammy dark fruit notes; prominent lactic tartness is present alongside a vinous, red wine-like quality; low toasted malt provides a background for subtle oaky vanilla and earthy, aged wood; no hop aroma.
Taste. Initial impression is sharply tart and fruity; intense blackberry flavor persists from start to finish, supported by a low toasted bread malt character; fermentation provides a clean but assertive lactic acidity with no acetic vinegary notes; hop bitterness is very low, as the balance is driven by acidity and fruit tannins; finish is very dry and lingering with a crisp berry-skin aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a refreshing, prickly high carbonation; low alcohol warmth; moderate astringency from the Northwest Blackberries and oak tannins provides a structured, wine-like mouthfeel.
