The Virginia Beer Company: Cellar Circus // Blend No. 003
Official description from the brewery:
Oak Barrel-Fermented Blended Farmhouse Ale aged exclusively in White Wine Barrels with Brettanomyces. Blended from multiple barrels and bottle-conditioned since April 2019; fit for extended aging. --- Cellar Circus #3 Tasting Notes: - Three white barrels in the blend aged 18 months. - Bottle conditioned with Brettanomyces Bruxellensis. - Initially funky and wild aroma of fresh hay gives way to expressive stone fruit character of peaches and apricots, especially in the flavor and finish. - Finishes with just a touch of pineapple tartness, but is far from acidic. - Extremely dry and crisp with a slightly oaky/tannic finish that accentuates the dryness. - Hints of fruity/sweet white wine throughout. --- Exclusive preview release in November 2019 at select locations in Osaka, Fukuoka, and Tokyo before the US release on 2020.
