Furthermore Beer
Spring Green, Wisconsin
Style: Specialty Ale
Serving Style: Draft

Aroma: Lightly toasty with a good amount of funk from the Brettanomyces yeast.
Appearance: Murky and red. Low head that didn’t persist.
Flavor: Intense black pepper emphasized by a fairly high hop bitterness. Very light roasty malt. Earthy, barnyard funkiness with some acidic sourness, although the sourness is subdued. A nice yeasty fruit character of cherries and stone fruits came through as the beer warmed.
Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderately high carbonation. Some astringency from the pepper and hops.
Overall Impression: Furthermore says that this is a mostly wheat based beer with a bit of roasted malt for color, black pepper, beet extract, two kinds of wild Brettanomyces yeast cultures, and an acid producing bacterial culture. Kind of a beety American sour ale. I liked the beer but found level of black pepper to be distracting. The beer definitly improved as it warmed and the fruity character of the wild yeasts came through. Don’t be afraid to let this one sit in front of you for a bit. Order it before you finish the beer you are drinking.
