Brewery Ommegang has been on fire lately. The second beer in the Game of Thrones series broke the internet this week, so let’s keep the trend alive shall we? A new wild ale is on the horizon from the Cooperstown, NY brewery. Wild At Heart features the funky and popular brettanomyces yeast.
Wild At Heart is an audacious new ale in our brewer’s obsession series. In a rarely-employed technique we use only wild brettanomyces yeast in primary fermentation – the very heart of the beer. The brett yeast imparts robust fruit flavors and aromas, and combines with Motueka and topaz hops to create uncommon tastes and aromas, Wild at Heart pours a rich amber hue with a full white head. Aromas include mango, pineapple, and passion fruit. Complex flavors present a touch of tartness, carefully balanced with gentle malt sweetness and subtle hop bitterness. For enhanced tartness, simply let the beer age.
