Yazoo Embrace the Funk Sauvignon Blanc Brett Saison
This variation of Yazoo Brett Saison has been aging since winter in Sauvignon Blanc barrels from Napa Valley.
The extended aging in these heavy toasted barrels added a nice layer of tartness (due to the natural acidity of the wine) along with characters of Pear, Grapeskin, Honeydew Melon and nuances of Granny Smith apples. If you've had a nice Sauv Blanc wine, you'll find these familiar characters.
Expect a prominent oak presence with the heavy toast of the barrels. Even though it is ready to enjoy now, this beer will age and evolve in the bottle.
This is labeled as Batch 'ONE'

"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."
Had a S. A. Winterfest from the tap for lunch. It left me wondering just what I had drank. Not sure how to explain it, but it *did not* float my boat, so to speak. Anyone else try one, what did ya thunk about it? Don't thunk I will have anudder one.
