Beer Profile
Funderen
Funderen is a mixed fermentation wild ale showcasing complex layers of tartness and funk. Its aroma reveals bright, earthy notes intertwined with subtle hints of citrus and barnyard character. On the palate, lively acidity balances flavors of ripe stone fruit, wild berries, and a touch of oak-driven depth from barrel aging. The medium-light body supports a refreshing, dry finish that carries a persistent, nuanced tartness. This ale exemplifies the dynamic interplay of yeast and bacteria, resulting in a distinctive sour profile with a refined farmhouse character.
