TRVE Brewing Company Restarter

__Aroma:__ “Wine-like. Some delicate sweetness with grape notes and some light funk (sweaty pineapple and horse blanket) with a tartness that hits at the end. Moderate sour juicy aroma with light cherry, white grape, and light peach and pear.” __Flavor:__ “Grapes pop in the flavor with a character somewhere between grape juice and wine. More earthy *Brett* comes through with a freshly fallen-rain aroma. Low to moderate sweetness into moderately high acidity that fades nicely into a dry finish. Finishes with more sweetness than sourness.” __Overall:__ “This beer has it all. It starts with an up-front sourness and big grape flavor that transitions into a light sweetness right before the finish. Lots of *Brett* funk with a very interesting fruit character from the grapes that blends nicely. Very refreshing. Like grape juice meets lemonade.”

__Aroma:__ “Apricots and peaches, with raspberries hiding in the background. There’s a candy-like element, almost like Twizzlers or peach rings. Moderately sour with acetic notes, with a funky, sweaty, hay-like complexity. Malt sweetness.” __Flavor:__ “Moderately sour up front with big peach sourness. A classic wild beer that tastes spontaneously fermented, with the focus on the wild bugs and less on the fruit. Juiciness from apricots and peaches, with some raspberry notes to follow. The lactic acidity is medium, with light vinegar in the background. Medium body with lots of carbonation keeps the beer refreshing and dry.” __Overall:__ “The fruit blend plays a complementary role to the fermentation. The tartness and funk are enjoyable, with the wild notes providing lots of complexity. Acidity is closer to the top end, but not unpleasant—with the fruitiness, it’s gives the effect of a Sour Patch Kid.”

__Aroma:__ “Moderate sour and dark fruit aroma with rich, jammy fruity notes of cherry and light malt sweetness. A bit of wet hay and barnyard funk. A little chocolate.” __Flavor:__ “Cherry comes through stronger in the flavor along with raspberry, cranberry, and a bit of currant. Notes of lactic tartness hit on the tongue, with some sweetness of cherries and tartness that carry through the taste. Some acidic notes carry through on the back. Some funk. There is a nice body to this sour. Some light sweet chocolate notes add some body. Finishes slightly sweet with some tartness that leads to a fairly dry finish. Light spiciness (all-spice or clove) in the middle of the sip with a touch of sweetness. Moderate carbonation helps bring out the sourness in the cherries.” __Overall:__ “Sour cherries with light sweetness during the sip that transitions into a dry, sour cherry finish. This beer is sweet but not overly sweet. There is a nice cherry flavor with some good acidity and tartness that add complexity.Bold, sweet, and sour—there must be a large dose of fresh Schaerbeek cherries.”
