Vila Prazeres is a vibrant Wild Specialty Beer that captures the soul-refreshing essence of ripe raspberries set against a complex wild fermentation. This ruby-hued sour presents a punchy aromatic profile of fresh-picked berry and underlying lactic tartness. The palate is defined by a zippy, clean acidity that elevates the natural fruit character while maintaining a bone-dry finish. A subtle, rustic funk provides depth without overshadowing the fruit’s brightness. Light-bodied and highly effervescent, it balances sharp fruit tannins with a crisp mouthfeel, making it an exceptionally refreshing and modern expression of a fruited American Wild Ale.
