A Note on This Beer
Snagging a brand new brew weeks before its taproom release gets me totally jazzed. My craft nerdiness peaks, and my inner child exclaims, “Look! I got it first!”
That’s right — not a single Colorado craft fan has tasted the fruit-tastic flavors of Funkwerks’ newest Wild #1 Passionfruit Foeder Aged Wild Ale!
We’re lucky to have the head start. According to a Funkwerks’ team member, their release day lines are no joke — you better bring some extra snacks and maybe a game of Cards Against Humanity to play while you wait!
After your first tangy taste, you'll see what the hype is all about. These Centennial State brewmasters began with a 425 lbs tsunami of fresh passion fruit purée, generating a succulent splash of tropical flavors! Afterwards, they aged the entire 28 barrel batch in a large oak foeder for 6-9 months, giving Wild #1 layers of woody funk.
Ultimately, it's pretty simple. Unless 1.) you live near the Fort Collins taproom, and 2.) you’re willing to wait a few weeks for the official release, Tavour is the ONLY place to give this juicy Wild Ale a try!
