BREWERY DESCRIPTION:
To produce SpontanBasil, fresh whole basil leaves are added to a batch of one-to-two year old lambic that has been aged on oak. The beautiful flavor and aroma of fresh basil marry perfectly with the sour, tart flavors of lambic. After racking and filling bottles, SpontanBasil gains natural, soft carbonation via bottle-conditiong: the yeast produces CO2 in the corked bottle. SpontanBasil shows a golden color with a hint of green hightlights. The body is fairly light; entry and finish are a delightful marriage of real lambic complexity - appetizing sourness - with a beautifully aromatic, delightful, fresh aroma found in kitchens around the world, from Italy to Thailand: fresh basil.
INGREDIENTS:
Water, barley malt, wheat, basil, hops, wild yeast
SUGGESTED PAIRINGS:
Pasta with pesto, or other Italian dishes made with basil; dishes featuring tomatoes (a classic basil pairing); goat cheese; rich cream soup. SpontanBasil is an ideal aperitif served alone before a meal, too.
