This Breakfast-inspired Brett Beer offers a complex olfactory journey starting with earthy, barnyard funk and transitioning into deep, vinous blueberry and roasted coffee. The bourbon barrel aging introduces layers of charred oak and vanilla, which harmonize with the rich, forest-floor aromatics of the Brettanomyces fermentation. On the palate, the sharp interplay of tart dark berries and decadent maple syrup is tempered by a surprising dryness characteristic of the style. The high alcohol content provides a steadying warmth, while the coffee adds a subtle, toasted depth to the finish. It is a masterful, multi-layered wild ale that balances rustic farm character with indulgent breakfast additives.
Appearance.Deep mahogany to garnet with a dark purple tint; slight haze present from fruit. The tan head is thin with moderate retention, leaving light lacing as the high alcohol and coffee oils dissipate the foam.
Aroma.High intensity featuring a blend of ripe blueberries, earthy barnyard funk, and moderate roasted coffee. Subtle notes of maple syrup sweetness and bourbon-soaked oak provide a rich backdrop, complemented by fruity esters of plum and cherry.
Taste.Initial impression of tart blueberry and sweet maple, quickly followed by earthy, leathery funk and a hint of barnyard character. The mid-palate reveals dark-roasted coffee and vanilla-forward bourbon oak. Despite the rich ingredients, the finish is remarkably dry and highly attenuated with a lingering tartness and a hint of charred wood.
Mouthfeel.Medium-full body with a velvety, slightly viscous texture. Carbonation is moderate, providing enough lift to balance the richness. A noticeable, well-integrated alcohol warmth persists throughout, with no significant astringency.
