Let’s take a simple 2-row grain bill, load it with oats and wheat, then instead of fermenting with our house yeast strain, let’s pitch a ton of Brettanomyces yeast. Then do a massive dry hop of Citra and Cascade! The result is a unique flavour profile of sweet pineapple and melon, combined with the subtle funkiness of brett! Expect a nice lingering bitterness and highly aromatic beer. While adding brett ‘post-fermentation’ adds a more funky-barnyard brett character, choosing to ferment a beer primarily with brett lends a less noticeable brett character (who’d of thought…). What we do get is more fruity esters, and just enough brett aromatics to know that the funk is there!
