Description
The Cyclic Garnatxa Vinyes Tortuga 33cl is a sour craft beer that blurs the lines between the worlds of beer and natural wine. Crafted with organic Garnacha grape skins from Vinyes Tortuga, this farmhouse sour stands out for its fresh and deeply expressive character.
During 13 days of maceration with the grape skins on a sour base, it develops an aromatic complexity and a very unique structure, where fruit, acidity, and vinous notes integrate elegantly. Unfiltered and unpasteurized, it maintains all the authenticity and personality of a living beer, designed to be enjoyed slowly and shared.
