Jester King Atrial Rubicite

The Rubicite hits you with this immediate tart snap, then settles into something mysterious—there's stone fruit depth beneath the acidity, almost like plum skin and dried apricot. The funk is present but not aggressive; it's a whisper of barn and culture rather than a shout. At 10 IBUs, there's barely any bitterness, so what you're tasting is pure wild yeast character and the fruit doing its thing over time. This is a beer that tastes different at minutes one, five, and ten—it opens up as it warms.

Strawberry Sundae

This one smells like actual strawberry jam the moment you crack it, which is either a promise or a warning depending on what you're after. The fruit hits first and stays first—it's not muddled by funk or hidden behind acidity, it's just there, genuine and sweet. At 4.5%, it drinks light and fast, almost dangerously easy. The wildness shows up at the finish as a subtle tartness, but honestly this beer is about the strawberry experience, not about proving its wild ale credentials.
