Side Project Brewing Pulling Nails (Blend #15)
Other Styles 7 º
Pulling Nails Blend #15 is a masterfully balanced Brett Beer that showcases the interplay between mature Wild Ales and a vibrant duet of Cherry and Raspberry. The sensory profile is defined by a deep, stone-fruit Brett funk that harmonizes with the bright, jammy acidity of the fruit. Several months of bottle conditioning have integrated these elements into a complex tapestry of earthy hay, red berries, and subtle oak. It finishes bone-dry and crisp, reflecting Side Project's signature attenuation and focus on extraordinary depth. The result is a highly nuanced experience where the rustic yeast character and fruit are in perfect, elegant alignment.
Appearance. Deep ruby to burnished red hue with a slight, hazy luminescence. Pours with a fine-beaded, light pink head that shows moderate retention and delicate lacing.
Aroma. High intensity; a sophisticated bouquet of ripe Raspberry and tart Cherry dominates, layered over a complex Brettanomyces profile of horse blanket, wet hay, and aged leather. Subtle notes of vanillin and toasted oak emerge as the beer warms.
Taste. Initial impression is a burst of tart red fruit—specifically juicy Cherry and Raspberry—followed quickly by a rustic, earthy funk. Malt presence is minimal, providing a faint crackery backdrop for the fruit and wood. Bitterness is low, allowing the natural fruit acidity and high attenuation to drive a clean, lingering, and bone-dry finish.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a crisp, lively carbonation that scrubs the palate. Despite the 7% ABV, alcohol warmth is subtle and well-integrated. No astringency is present, though a light, pleasant fruit tartness persists.
