E9 Brewery / La Brasserie Trois Dames Le Visiteur (Batch 1) – American Wild Ale at 5.7% ABV (C$11.23 at Willow Park Wine & Spirits, 375 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 23-Feb-2018, reviewed 23-Jan-2022)
Appearance: clear ruby-tinged amber brown with minimal head diminishing rapidly to nothing, no lacing. (3/5) Aroma: vinous grapes, field berries, floral, light funk. (8/10) Taste: moderate-high tart, moderate sweet, low bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium-light body, lively carbonation, lingering boozy finish. (4/5)
“American wild ale with blackberry and nectarberry”. No idea what a nectarberry is, but it’s nice to have a true Wild instead of those horrible kettle sours that everyone’s doing these days. This one is very vinous, with red wine character overwhelmingly dominant over jammy berry and light wild funk. (16/20)
This will be my 5,179th unique Untappd check-in.
8/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
