We were honored when our pal Brian ’Stillwater’ Strumke asked us if we wanted to ’remix’ one of his beers. So honored we took this all the way. After poking around in his collection of brews, we decided on Folklore. However, our remix of Folklore is loose as a goose, just like we want it. This beer is brewed as an amber ale infused with cacao and coffee, with portions aged in bourbon barrels and finally dried out with a dose of brettanomyces yeast. The resulting beer is unlike any you can imagine. Dark fruit, chocolate, and wild yeast flavors all combined with a slightly vinous undertone...its like that time you went to the disco and saw Babe the blue ox dancing with Paul Bunyan. Get it?

    Bottle I purchased fizzed all over the place when I opened it - if you get it in a bottle, maybe you better open it in the tub. ;) When it finally settles down, it pours opaque dark honey-golden with a thick and persistent buff head. Aroma has yeasty, chocolate, fruity, and subtle malty and hay tones that beckon to the mouth. Distinctive flavor pleases with sour fruit, mocha, malty, hay, bourbon and earthy notes. Mouthfeel is firm, lively and tingly - you can feel it as it goes downstairs. Enjoy this Tall Tale - but if you do see Paul Bunyan disco dancing with a blue ox, better call a taxi.
