Details
Brewed exclusively with El Dorado hops, this dry-hopped IPA is fermented with a combination of Saccharomyces Trois and Brettanomyces. Fruity, funky, and hoppy.
– Brewer
Brettanomyces is a bacteria reminiscent of goats, it is known to eat everything (interestingly? is also a flavor commonly attributed to Brett beers). As a result of Bretts’ ability to consume any sugars, it leaves behind a unique set of molecules which leaves a beer tasting some what barn yard like? and very dry. The characteristics of Brett are in the forefront of Dorado Gold. The aroma is hay-like and almost musty; like opening the door to a barn in the Fall. The flavor is similar to the aroma but more intense and funky.
