This Wild Specialty Beer is a complex sensory tapestry that balances vibrant fruit with decadent sweetness. A deep reddish-pink pour leads to an aromatic explosion of ripe raspberry and tart cherry, intertwined with a distinct tropical banana note. The wild fermentation provides a sharp, lemony acidity that slices through the rich, caramelized sugar character of dulce de leche. The palate transitions from a puckering berry tartness to a smooth, creamy mid-palate where the banana and dulce de leche soften the edges, finishing with a lingering, funky fruitiness and a clean, tart snap that invites another sip.
Appearance.Deep reddish-pink to magenta hue with a persistent haze; pours with a thin, light pink head that dissipates quickly, leaving minimal lacing.
Aroma.High intensity aromatics of fresh-crushed raspberries and bright cherries layered over a subtle, creamy banana ester and a distinctive sweet, toffee-like note from the dulce de leche. A moderate lactic sourness and light barnyard funk provide a complex backdrop.
Taste.Initial impression of sharp, refreshing acidity driven by the wild fermentation and tart berries. High fruit flavor follows, with dominant raspberry and cherry notes. The banana adds a subtle sweetness and weight to the mid-palate, while the dulce de leche provides a delicate caramel-milk finish that balances the sourness. Finishes dry with a lingering berry skin tartness.
Mouthfeel.Medium body, notably more viscous than a standard wild ale due to the banana and dulce de leche additions; moderate carbonation provides a lively prickle; low alcohol warmth; very slight fruit-tannin astringency.
