Freigeist Bierkultur Taste Of The Cretian Sun (Coolship Edition)
Fruit Lambic 6 º
This Wild Specialty Beer is a complex tapestry of Mediterranean aromatics and rustic wild fermentation. Coolship inoculation provides an earthy, funky backdrop for the sharp, acidic snap of verjuice and tart pomegranate. Distinctive herbal notes of rosemary intertwine with the subtle warmth of ginger and the floral bitterness of orange peel. Two and a half years of barrel aging impart a structured woody depth and integrated tannins, smoothing the intense acidity into a sophisticated, vinous profile. It is a vibrant, sun-drenched expression of wild character, balancing savory herbs with bright, tangy fruit and a deep, lingering oak finish.
Appearance. Deep copper with a distinct rose-colored tint; pours with a thin, off-white head that dissipates quickly into a fine ring. Clarity is slightly hazy due to the long maturation and fruit additions.
Aroma. High intensity; sharp, lactic acidity and lemon-like verjuice lead into complex barnyard funk, wet hay, and leather. Prominent resinous rosemary and floral orange peel are bolstered by a light, spicy ginger snap and earthy pomegranate seeds.
Taste. Immediate, puckering acidity from verjuice and pomegranate balanced by a low, cracker-like malt base. Flavors of bitter orange peel and savory rosemary provide a herbal counterpoint to the wild, funky Brettanomyces character. The finish is bone-dry and tannic with lingering notes of oak and a spicy ginger prickle.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with moderate carbonation that accentuates the tartness. Noticeable tannic astringency from pomegranate skins and extended barrel aging; subtle alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated.
