Nose: sweet with a hint of phenol - could be that it's still young.
Taste: strong tartness and bitterness with a light grapyness. Not too dry given that the beer attenuated better than the recipe builder expected.
Finish: sour and bitter flavors rule the final moments of the beer, with some heat lingering on the back and middle of the tongue.
Mouthfeel: the maltodextrin worked. substantial without being syrupy.
Overall: This turned out rather like a dark gueze. For a first try at the split lacto and brett approach, i really like attack of the sourness and think it will taste even better once carbonated. This kind of tartness does great when effervescent. Next steps for this recipe include dialing in the malt profiles so we have slightly more sweetness (but not much), less acid malt, and ease out the hop bitterness. |

Smell: winey, grapey, slight brett phenol. Not barnyardy, just slightly funky
Taste: sweet, mild funkiness, slides toward lemony tartness, and really easy bitterness. very balanced.
A hint of heat as it goes down. |
