Vocation Brewery

This Wild Specialty Beer offers a vibrant sensory journey defined by its namesake ingredient. A sharp, zesty tang immediately commands the palate, driven by a generous addition of juicy rhubarb that provides a distinctive, vegetal-fruit acidity. The sensory profile is remarkably fresh and lively, evoking springtime with its bright, tangy kick. Beneath the refreshing tartness lies a delicate thread of malt sweetness that provides enough structural support to prevent the acidity from becoming overwhelming. Clean fermentation notes allow the rhubarb's primary characteristics to shine, resulting in a crisp, invigorating, and beautifully balanced sour ale.

Appearance. Pale straw to light golden with a delicate pinkish hue from the rhubarb. Clarity is clear to slightly hazy. Head is white, fast-fading with minimal lacing.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity of sharp, tangy rhubarb and bright lactic acidity. Low bready malt sweetness is present in the background. Hop aroma is absent, with a clean fermentation profile devoid of heavy funk.

Taste. Initial sharp, zesty acidity leads into juicy rhubarb flavors that are both tart and tangy. A subtle malt sweetness balances the acidity without cloying. Bitterness is low to non-existent, finishing very dry and refreshing with a lingering rhubarb brightness.

Mouthfeel. Light-bodied with high carbonation that creates a prickly, lively sensation. Alcohol warmth is negligible. A slight, pleasant astringency from the rhubarb enhances the dry, crisp finish.
