Temptation

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass in delicate lacing. Natural carbonation produces a steady stream of small bubbles that sustains throughout the tasting. The beer displays the characteristic brightness of a well-aged wild ale matured in oak.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright stone fruit and citrus notes, followed by subtle oak undertones and a gentle funky character from Brettanomyces. Soft yeast-driven complexity emerges—notes of white wine and honey join the fruit-forward profile without overwhelming earthiness. The overall impression is refined and inviting rather than aggressive.

◐ Geschmack

The palate leads with a structured, pleasant sourness that frames the entire experience without harshness. Mid-palate reveals layered fruitiness—orchard fruit and subtle citrus—balanced against dry, woody notes from barrel aging. Brettanomyces and acidity work in tandem to create complexity, while low IBU (10) keeps the finish clean and allowing the funky, tart character to shine through.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and lingering, with the sourness and oak gradually fading into a subtle funky aftertaste. Fine yeast sediment from bottle refermentation adds a whisper of additional complexity to the very end.
