American Brett

These unique beers vary in color and can take on the hues of added fruits or other ingredients. Horsey, goaty, leathery, phenolic and some fruity acidic character derived from Brettanomyces organisms may be evident, but in balance with other components of an American Brett beer. Brett beer and sour beer are not synonymous. Despite Brettanomyces presents in sour beer, American Bret beers do not exhibit the level of sour taste that sour beers do, thus, Brett beers should not be mistaken for a sour beer.
