pFriem Family Brewers Spontanée I

What the brewers say

“Finished with a blend of fragrant giant hyssop, whole roses, wild-harvested cedar tips.”

What our panel thought

“Pleasant, rich fruity nose with candy undertones. Grainy malt adds a foundation for a clean lactic sour character with hints of peach, white pepper, guava, mango, fresh leather. High carbonation adds bite and definition to the finish. Bright and crisp, but with enough complexity to stay interesting.”

What our editors thought

“Apple-pear on the nose with a bit of wet earth. Very acid-forward in the sip, with a strong stone-fruit-lemon-lime attack.”

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

Jester King Brewery 2021 All-Texas SPON

“Pleasant lightly tart nose with some grassy hop character. Bright lemon dominates at the expense of subtle character. Hints of mushroom, musty cellar mid palate. Abrupt finish with hop bitterness.”

Primitive Beer LLC Cursed Heirloom: Irish Whiskey

“Smoky phenols with black pepper and bread. Oak notes add spice to the light fruit sour character, as the barrel plays off the peppery yeast.”

pFriem Family Brewers Cold Brew Coffee Barrel Aged Stout

“Dark-roast cold-brew with cream in the aroma, carrying through into the flavor. Slightly astringent; roast-coffee note lingers into the finish with unsweetened chocolate. Pleasant warmth accompanies each sip.”
