Funky Fauna Artisan Ales Strictly Fiction
What the brewers say
“Whiskey barrel–fermented saison with Kotata blackberries and peach pits.”
What our panel thought
“Tropical punch notes in the aroma alongside some subtle hints of leather and oak. The flavors are reminiscent of peach nectar combined with a strawberry-like acidity, creating a tartness that throws the impression of syrupy sweet. Wonderful combo.”
What our editors thought
“Fresh Trousseau grape–like aroma, light and vaguely fruity, with a stemmy herbal jag. Wider and softer in the sip, as the berry notes sprawl with faint tannic checks. Finishes with a friendly berry sweetness.”
