Brooklyn Wild Streak starts off as a Belgian-inspired golden ale. After fermentation and a brief conditioning, we then age the beer for several months in second-use bourbon barrels, giving it a soft, round character infused with nicely balanced oak flavors. Finally we bottle the beer flat and re-ferment it with blend of priming sugar, Champagne yeast and the wild yeast strain Brettanomyces. As the two yeasts do their cavorting, the beer gains its natural carbonation. The “Brett” takes many months to do its thing during bottle aging, but once it does, Wild Streak is enlivened by a wonderfully complex earthy funk.

    Pours hazy topaz with a nice parchment head. Aroma features sweet & tart peach and mango, some honey. Flavor delivers tart & sweet peach with mango and honey. Texture presents fair body & peppy fizz. Go wild.

    The brettt in here is pretty light. It gives a light tartness and dry quality to the soft golden ale. Reminiscent of other bourbon goldens like Allagash Curieux, and North Coast Grand Cru, but not as good as those brews.
