Prizm

Vulcain by Prizm and Fauve Craft Bière is a vivid Wild Specialty Beer that showcases an immense 1.4-ton addition of Mango, Peach, and Passionfruit. The sensory profile is defined by a dense, tropical fruit intensity that melds seamlessly with the tart, rustic edges of a wild fermentation. Aromas of sun-drenched stone fruit and sharp tropical zest lead into a palate where the lush sweetness of mango and peach is tempered by the vibrant acidity of passionfruit. The addition of lactose provides a smoothing, creamy counterpoint to the wild funk, ensuring a luxurious mouthfeel and a complex, lingering fruit finish.

Appearance. SRM 5-8; vibrant, deep yellow to orange-gold color; significantly hazy to opaque due to heavy fruit puree. Head is off-white, moderate to low in height with poor retention, common in heavily fruited wild ales.

Aroma. High intensity of ripe mango and fleshy peach; prominent tropical tartness from passionfruit. A distinct but complementary wild yeast character provides subtle earthy funk and lactic acidity, softened by a faint, sweet milky note from the lactose.

Taste. Immediate, explosive fruit flavors of juicy mango and peach; the passionfruit provides a sharp, clean acidity that defines the mid-palate. The wild fermentation contributes a complex, moderate sourness. Lactose balances the tartness with a mild sweetness, leading to a lingering, fruit-heavy finish that is more rounded than a standard wild ale.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a thick, creamy, and luscious texture from the puree and lactose additions. Carbonation is moderate, providing a slight prickle that cuts through the fruit density. Alcohol warmth is low and well-integrated.
