Wiper And True Orchard Ale

This Orchard Ale presents a masterful fusion of cidery and farmhouse elements, defined by three years of spontaneous fermentation and maturation in French white wine barrels. The sensory profile is led by a complex wild funk and sharp lactic tartness, underpinned by a rustic farmhouse malt recipe. Distinctive notes of crisp, fermented apple skins and wood-derived tannins provide structure, while the white wine influence adds a vinous elegance. The result is a deeply intriguing, bone-dry Wild Specialty Beer that balances rustic barnyard aromatics with a bright, acidic fruit finish and a lingering, tannic grip.
Appearance. Pours a hazy, pale gold to light amber (SRM 5-7). The head is white and effervescent, fading quickly to a thin collar with minimal lacing, typical of acidic, barrel-aged styles.
Aroma. High intensity aromatics featuring complex wild yeast funk—notes of hay, earthy cellar, and mild goat cheese. Sharp lactic acidity mingles with fresh cider-like apple notes and a distinct vinous character from French white wine barrels, suggesting white grape and toasted oak.
Taste. The initial impression is vibrantly tart and acidic, followed by a rush of fermented apple fruit and a dry, rustic malt backbone. The wild fermentation provides deep complexity with funk and spice, while the barrel aging introduces firm tannins and a light woody astringency. It finishes bone-dry and crisp with a lingering apple-skin tartness.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with high carbonation that prickles the tongue. Noticeable tannic astringency from the wood and fruit skins provides a drying sensation. Low alcohol warmth is well-integrated.
