(B)Rhett and Scarlett is a captivating IPA-Sour/Wild hybrid from the talented brewers at Te Aro Brewing. This 7.0% ABV beer is a unique and intriguing offering, showcasing a harmonious blend of flavors. The beer's foundation is a 100% brett barrel-fermented red IPA, which has been further enhanced by the addition of fresh green Nelson Sauvin hops. The result is a complex and layered drinking experience, with notes of tart and funky brett character, balanced by the hop-forward bitterness and tropical fruit aromas. Aged in pinot noir barrels, this beer has taken on a distinct red hue and a touch of oak and wine-like complexity. The interplay of the sour and hop elements creates a delightfully refreshing and thought-provoking brew, perfect for adventurous beer enthusiasts.
