Norm Brewing Mantra is a vibrant Wild Specialty Beer that showcases a deep integration of blueberry purée with complex wild fermentation. The profile is defined by a striking fruit presence that leans toward fresh skins and jammy richness, balanced by the rustic, earthy funk typical of mixed-culture fermentation. Bracing acidity provides a sharp, clean counterpoint to the fruit’s natural character, while the blueberry addition contributes a subtle, drying tannic structure. It is a harmonious expression where the primary ingredient and the expressive fermentation characteristics meld into a refreshing, tart, and highly aromatic experience that celebrates its fruit-forward identity.
Appearance.Deep violet to hazy magenta hue, reflecting the heavy addition of blueberry purée; moderate to low head retention with a light pink-tinted foam that dissipates quickly.
Aroma.High intensity with a dominant scent of sun-ripened blueberries and forest floor funk. Subtle notes of leather, damp earth, and a clean lactic sharpness provide depth, while the fruit character remains primary and vibrant.
Taste.Initial sharp tartness followed by rich, authentic blueberry flavor. The fruit sweetness is largely fermented out, leaving a dry, berry-skin character with hints of tart skins. A mild funkiness persists into the finish, which is crisp, clean, and moderately acidic.
Mouthfeel.Light to medium-light body with high carbonation that creates a spritzy, tongue-tingling sensation. A very slight tannic astringency from the blueberries adds structure without being harsh; alcohol presence is minimal and well-integrated.
