Tommie Sjef

Nu showcases the artistry of blending, featuring a sophisticated sensory profile driven by a significant seven-year-old barrel component alongside younger, vibrant stock. The experience leads with complex Brettanomyces character—evoking cellar dust, aged leather, and wet hay—brightened by fresh notes of apricot and citrus zest. On the palate, the extensive aging introduces a profound depth of earthy funk and subtle wood tannin, while the younger barrels maintain a lively, fruit-forward lift. Bone-dry and effervescent, this Brett Beer balances intricate fermentation byproducts with a clean, vinous finish, reflecting a mastery of spontaneous-style depth and textural elegance.

Appearance. Deep gold to light amber (7–10 SRM). Pours with a moderate white head that shows fair retention and fine lacing. Clarity is slightly hazy, typical of a matured, unfiltered blend.

Aroma. High intensity with a complex layering of funky Brettanomyces. Older components contribute notes of leather, horse blanket, and earthy cellar, while younger portions provide bright stone fruit, pineapple, and citrus esters. Low neutral malt and a faint, pleasant wood-derived vanillin or oak character are present.

Taste. Initial impression is exceptionally dry and crisp. Minimal malt flavor allows the fermentation character to dominate, featuring apricot, lemon pith, and a persistent but clean barnyard funk. Hop bitterness is low, providing just enough structure. The finish is very dry and lingering with a subtle woody astringency and light organic acidity.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with high, prickly carbonation that enhances the dry finish. Alcohol warmth is light and well-integrated at 7%. Low astringency from oak aging provides a structural, vinous mouthfeel without being harsh.
