Métaphore

This delicate Brett Beer showcases a sophisticated marriage between rustic fermentation and fresh local Williams pears. The sensory profile is defined by a bright, effervescent dryness, where the Brettanomyces contributes nuanced notes of white peach and tropical esters alongside a whisper of soft, earthy funk. The Williams pears are treated with restraint, acting as a subtle aromatic spice rather than a heavy juice character. This allows the fruit’s floral, orchard-like elegance to peek through in the finish, tickling the palate against a crisp, high-attenuation backdrop that emphasizes refreshment and farmhouse complexity without the presence of lactic sourness.

Appearance. Pale straw to light gold (3–5 SRM). Pours with a moderate white head that dissipates steadily, leaving light lacing. Displays a slight haze characteristic of fruit-infused mixed fermentation.

Aroma. Moderate to high aromatic intensity featuring floral Williams pear, ripe stone fruit, and a distinct Brettanomyces presence of wet hay and dusty earth. Hints of lemon zest and white pepper complement the fruit esters.

Taste. Bone-dry and highly attenuated. Initial flavors of orchard fruit and citrus transition into a complex mid-palate of farmhouse funk and mild graininess. The Williams pear provides a delicate, spice-like flicker in the finish. Bitterness is low, serving only to balance the fruit esters. Clean, crisp, and refreshing aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Light-bodied and very lean. High carbonation provides a lively, scrubbing effervescence. No alcohol warmth is perceived. Refreshing and crisp with zero astringency.
