Weyerbacher Rapture. American Wild Ale. What else? Nothing here, on the label.
Dark red, clear, little head.
Aroma: malt, sour, cherries. Wild and funky.
Taste: Mmmm. Puckeration! Big hit of sour. Bam, tart, and flush with fruit, then mellow and mild on the way out. Each sip gets gripped again, the palate is tucked and tugged with this fierce sour blast. A little vinegar, a touch of tannin, just enough of the wine to make you wonder if it's beer.Well, we know it is, but somebody's always wondering.
Fresh fruit, flash of funk, but easy drinking down. Very nice wild ale, Weyerbacher, very nice.
(Swiped some information. Here, check it out: 6.7% American Wild Red Ale that has undergone 100% of its fermentation and 18 months of aging in pinot noir wine barrels on a collection of micro flora that has created wonderful flavors of berry fruits, oak and a pronounced, yet quite pleasant tartness. The acidity is rounded out with a muted vinous quality, satisfying maltiness and effervescent mouthfeel that is sure to bring you joyful ecstasy.)
