Surly Misanthrope, a Brett Saison, now available at brewery’s taproom
Misanthrope is a Belgian-style saison aged with Brett (a.k.a brettanomyces, a wild little yeast that produces fruity, spicy, funky flavors) in old white wine barrels. It’s made with Styrian Goldings hops, but not a whole lot of them since the IBU (international bitterness units) is fairly low, especially for a beer from this brewery. Some Great Taste goers described it as a more sour, nuanced version of Surly Cynic.
