Also, how do collabos work? I've seen quite a few of them in the past. Do both breweries brew their own with assistance from the other brewery? Or do they brew together and split batches? I saw a collabo between three breweries last year, and they all three put out their own releases. |
So, this one turned out to be very good. Had that good skunky smell that a lot of farmhouse ales from belgium have when you pop the bottle. The taste was great. Lots of lemon and funk. Good pepper, too. I was worried it would be sour, but was not at all. Very impressed.
