Octavo Arte VULPES

Tart raspberry and pungent tropical passionfruit leap immediately from the glass, underpinned by rustic Brettanomyces funk, dried leather, and damp wood. This Brett Beer marries barrel-aged stout foundations with aged wild ale, revealing toasted oak, faint bourbon vanilla, and dark roasted malt beneath a wave of fruit acidity. Earthy farmyard notes intertwine with tart berry skin and tangy passionfruit on the palate, where high attenuation and wild fermentation strip away residual sweetness. The finish dries out completely, leaving roasted cocoa undertones, oak tannins, and persistent tart fruit acidity without heaviness.
