Nachmelená Opice

Nachmelená Opice’s Pastry Kyseláč is a vibrant, dessert-inspired Wild Specialty Beer that evokes a traditional fruit tart. Intense aromas of fresh raspberry and earthy blackcurrant are softened by a rich, aromatic layer of Madagascar vanilla pods. The presence of lactose creates a creamy, cake-like foundation that expertly balances the sharp lactic acidity. On the palate, the tartness of the berries is front and center, yet smoothly integrated with a velvety sweetness reminiscent of a berry crumble. It is a complex, refreshing, and deeply fruit-forward ale with a luxurious, lingering finish of vanilla and forest fruit.

Appearance. Deep ruby-pink to purple with a significant haze from the fruit puree. Pours with a thick, frothy, pink-tinted head that shows moderate retention and leaves light lacing.

Aroma. High intensity aromatics of ripe raspberry and tart blackcurrant. A distinct, creamy sweetness from Madagascar vanilla and lactose provides a dessert-like profile. Low bready malt and a clean, lactic sourness are present, without any noticeable hop character or funk.

Taste. Initial impression is a sharp, refreshing burst of berry tartness—raspberry and blackcurrant—quickly followed by a smooth, creamy sweetness. The Madagascar vanilla adds depth and a pastry character. Hop bitterness is very low. The finish is balanced between lactic acidity and residual lactose sweetness, leaving a lingering impression of fruit-filled cake.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body, notably creamier than a standard sour due to the lactose and 15° Plato starting gravity. Moderate carbonation. Alcohol warmth is negligible. Smooth, velvet-like texture with no astringency from the fruit skins.
