Midnight Sun The New Black
From Midnight Sun – A Belgian Black Bier (lager) aged in oak barrels with black currants and Brettanomyces. It is very wine-like. It’s smooth yet complex if that makes any sense. It is crazy good with layers of incredible flavors.
Midnight Sun Brewing – Midnight Sun The New Black – 22 oz. bottle poured into a goblet. 8.4% abv.
Appearance: Pours a midnight brown with a creamy 1/4 inch tan cap.
Brewing something people should know about?
Since 2007, The Full Pint has been where craft beer fans get their news. Breweries and beer brands can reach them too.
Aroma: Lactic acid. Musty sour dank, wine barrel,basement and pencil. I know those are just descriptors, but that’s what came flying into my nose.
Taste: Wine barrel, tartness. Funky earthy yeast, currant, faint burnt roast.
Mouthfeel: Creamy with average carbonation.
Overall: An amazing complex treat that took me a while to figure out.
