Barn Owl No. 6

◎ Appearance

A deep ruby-purple hue that sits at the intersection of wine and beer, catching the light with translucent depth. Lively carbonation rises continuously, building and holding a persistent crown of small, tight bubbles. The clarity allows the color to shine while the vigorous effervescence signals an active, restless character.

◌ Aroma

The nose moves through layered registers: bright red berries meet the grip of wine tannins, recalling a young Lambrusco in its aromatic profile. Fresh fruit character dominates, with an underlying mineral-dry quality that speaks to fermentation and restraint rather than fruit sweetness. The effervescence carries the aromatics forward in waves, keeping them lively and present.

◐ Taste

Dry wine tannins grip the back of the tongue immediately, with sharp carbonation cutting cleanly across the palate. Fruit remains bright and tart—berry-forward without turning jammy—while the body stays lean and disciplined. The interplay between acidity, tannin structure, and effervescence creates a gripping, aperitif-ready character.

◑ Finish

The finish is long and gripping, tannins lingering on the back of the tongue as carbonation fades. A clean, dry aftertaste lingers, leaving the palate ready for another sip.

Serve at 6–9°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
