Cellarest Beer Project Sapling Jack 2023

What the brewers say

“Fermented and rested in a red-wine puncheon with foraged yeast before being aged on grape skins.”

What our panel thought

“A soft funk dominates. Starts as a bit of white wine–like fruit then slides into nutty parmesan and softer Brett notes. Some oak-like buttery notes. Light sourdough malt complements the acidity.”

What our editors thought

“Lambic-like mineral funk in the aroma, with soft lemon-lime undertones. Very light in the flavor, but the medium acidity scales for balance.”
