COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
At 5.1% ABV, Thicket as Thieves starts life as a sour farmhouse ale brewed entirely with local malt from Riverbend Malt House. It is then re-fermented on over 1 pound per gallon of blackberry puree for a delightfully tart and juicy flavor with a dry finish.
UPDATED: FEB 1, 2019 Good red/purple color (odd lighting in bar made it hard to figure out exactly where it is on the spectrum). Not that intense of a sour, but definitely some pucker happening, with a solid fruitiness making it very appealing. Moderately bubbly. Good. (On tap at Church Key, D.C.)
Bottle - pours purple with a pink head - nose and taste of vinous notes, blackberry funk, tart berry funk and oak - medium body
