Cloud Chaser is a vibrant Wild Specialty Beer that captures a bright, multi-dimensional profile of summer produce and botanicals. The pour is a stunning, hazy ruby-pink, crowned by a fleeting blush-colored head. Aromas lead with sharp, fresh Raspberry and the tangy, slightly vegetal edge of Rhubarb, underpinned by a delicate, marzipan-like Almond sweetness and subtle lactic tartness. On the palate, the zingy acidity of Strawberry and Raspberry takes center stage, balanced by a smooth, nutty Almond finish that rounds out the sharp edges. With its light body and brisk carbonation, this refreshing sour ale offers a complex yet approachable tapestry of forest fruits and savory depth.
Appearance.Deep pink to light ruby color (SRM 6-10 with fruit tint); hazy clarity; pink-tinted head with low to moderate retention and minimal lacing.
Aroma.High intensity aromatics of fresh Raspberry and ripe Strawberry, followed by a distinct tart Rhubarb note. A subtle, nutty Almond character provides a sweet-leaning counterpoint to the clean lactic sourness and very low funky fermentation esters.
Taste.Immediate impact of sharp lactic acidity and tart red berries. Raspberry and Rhubarb dominate the mid-palate, while a faint Strawberry sweetness peeks through. The finish is bone-dry with a lingering Almond note that softens the fruit acidity. No hop bitterness or flavor is perceived.
Mouthfeel.Light body; high carbonation providing a prickly, lively mouthfeel; low alcohol warmth; mild puckering astringency from the Rhubarb and fruit tannins.
