COOLSHIP CHAOS 2018 if you want unpredictable funk and sharp vinegar bite,
OUDE GREGG if you want balanced wild yeast character.
Both are Beachwood's wild ales, but Chaos leans intentionally feral—it's their coolship experiment, meaning spontaneous fermentation and bottle variation. Oude Gregg is the more refined play: a gueuze that blends aged lambics for harmony. Neither is a beginner's sour, but Chaos rewards adventurers; Oude Gregg rewards patience.

COOLSHIP CHAOS 2018
Coolship Chaos hits hard with brett funk—think barnyard meets orchard floor. The vinegar sharpness is deliberate, almost cutting, with subtle stone fruit underneath that doesn't soften the blow. It's bone-dry, prickly on the tongue, and feels alive in a way that makes you sit up. This is a beer that demands attention, not a sipper.
OUDE GREGG
Oude Gregg feels like someone aged wine in oak but kept it light. There's subtle cherry, dried apricot, and a lemony snap that's graceful rather than aggressive. The carbonation is delicate—almost champagne-like—and the wild yeast works quietly in the background instead of screaming. This one invites you in; it doesn't challenge your palate.
