Forgotten Tales of the Last Gypsy Blender, Series 2 Volume 1 by Jolly Pumpkin Artesian Ales
What a complex sour ale with fruit, citrus and salt. These blends are the continuation of their Last Gypsy Blender series with Chef Celina Tio. Forgotten Tales of the Last Gypsy Blender Series II, Volume I incorporates grains of beech and cherry smoked malts, 3 different hops, preserved lemons, lime peel, bourbon smoked sugar and Kiawe smoked sea salt. Yes, you read that ingredient list right!
Three batches of separate sizes were brewed and placed in oak foeders for eight, thirteen, and fifteen months. Even though they were blended together before packaging, the blend resulted in one beer with two distinct personalities. I’ll give it to Jolly Pumpkin - they know how to blend a damn good beer.
Try Blend A for an earthy and smoky delight. Hints of sweet lemons, wet leaves, and smoke, that finishes quite sweet with reminiscent flavors of coconut, bourbon, corn, and oak with very little sourness.
Try Blends B & C for a more salt forward lemony goodness with hints of vanilla, bubblegum, funk, and oak dancing together. Finishing with a mild citrus bite and light acidity. It still amazes me how different each blend can be.
Each blend is light in body with moderate carbonation. The Jolly Pumpkin funk exemplified by Oro de Calabaza runs throughout each of the beers making them delightfully complex and highly quaffable (for all us non beer snobs this means drinkable).
