Jester King Brewery

Austin, TX

Jester King Bière de Merlot
Imperial Sour - 8.5% ABV
Pete
     Super funky smelling and super tart tasting. The carbonation is weird though - the bubbles are too small and there aren't enough of them.

​Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's

Jester King Black Atrial
Russian Imperial Stout - 7% ABV
Pete
     This is a pretty darn weird beer. It's bitter dark stout plus tart funky raspberry. It works.

Jester King Le Petit Prince Farmhouse Table Beer
Farmhouse Table Beer - 2.9% ABV
Pete
     This was a wedding present from the bar (or possibly bartender) that I frequent, given to us on the wedding night during the after-party. The bartender said he expected us to need a low alcohol beer to slow us down. This takes that to the extreme. It has a little funkiness, and is extremely smooth, but it's hard to get much flavor into that ABV.

Jester King Nocturn Chrysalis
Wild Ale - 5.1% ABV
Pete
     Darn good sour. It's sour, it's salty, and it's a little funky.

Jester King Rare Corals
Saison - 5.3% ABV
Pete
     This beer is just plain brewed with too many things. Guava, bananas, strawberries, cantaloupe, toasted coconut, and chamomile. You can't taste them all. It's nice, but definitely overhyped.

Jester King Snörkel
Saison - 4.2% ABV
Pete
     Didn't really know what to expect with smoked salt and mushrooms in a beer, but it's darn good, albeit pretty weird at the same time. Funky, earthy, and salty.

Saison - 5.6% ABV

     Collaboration with Jolly Pumpkin. Tart, spicy, and funky. Incredible beer.

Jester King Vernal Dichotomous 2015
Saison - 5.4% ABV
Pete
     Super tart, kinda funky. There's a lot of flavors going on here, and it's hard to describe why it's so damn good, but it is.

Jester King Wakey Wakey
New Zealand IPA - 6.7% ABV

     Extremely zesty; my kind of beer. Excellent.
