Searching For Tomorrow

◎ Appearance

Deep garnet to mahogany in color with a translucent body that allows light to pass through. The head is modest but persistent, leaving fine lacing along the glass. Carbonation is gentle and refined, appropriate for a mixed-culture fermented sour.

◌ Aroma

Blackberry jam and dark fruit dominate the nose, lifted by bright tartness and subtle oak from the barrel aging. A whisper of chocolate and cocoa powder sits beneath the fruit, grounding the aromatics without overwhelming them. The overall character is layered and inviting, neither sharp nor muted.

◐ Taste

Tart and jammy on entry, with whole blackberry fruit asserting itself across the mid-palate in concentrated waves. A subtle chocolate character weaves through the acidity, providing balance and depth without sweetness. The finish turns crisp and dry, with lingering berry notes and a gentle drying sensation.

◑ Finish

Clean and refreshing, the acidity carries through to a dry, crisp conclusion. Blackberry notes fade gradually while a mild cocoa dryness persists on the palate.
