This Wild Specialty Beer is a lush, indulgent exploration of forest floor aromatics and confectionery sweetness. Dominated by a 35% fruit blend, it leads with the sharp, acidic snap of Black Currant softened by the jammy depths of Forest Blueberry and Blackberry. Rapeseed Honey adds a delicate floral complexity, while a generous addition of Vanilla creates a creamy, pastry-like roundness. At 8% ABV and 24 BLG, the beer possesses a substantial presence where wild lactic tartness harmonizes with residual sugars, resulting in a vibrant, purple-hued elixir that balances intense berry saturation with a velvety, dessert-inspired finish.
