Barn Owl No. 6
Barn Owl No. 6 pours a deep ruby purple—a colour that hovers between wine and beer, lively carbonation breaking the surface into a persistent crown. The nose flips through registers: effervescent and rich, red wine tannins meeting fresh berry, a Lambrusco echo that immediately signals fermentation and restraint. On the palate, those dry wine tannins grip the back of the tongue, the carbonation sharp enough to cut, the fruit staying bright rather than jammy. It drinks like a Flemish red caught in the moment before age deepens it, aperitif-ready and restless—built for the early evening when thirst meets curiosity. Serve cool, around 8–10 °C, in a tulip or wine glass to let the aroma gather.
