I knew that they used grapes in this one, but I never expected it to be
this predominant. That’s not in a bad way, the beer smells great! Like a
nice, bright white wine this Cynthiana smells crisp with an almost
sweet green grape aroma. It almost smells like this beer will be sour as
it smells slightly acidic. Also in there, I’m almost smell some
cinnamon and spices, most likely from the Belgian yeast. There’s also a
mild candy sweetness hiding towards the end. I could probably smell this
for quite a while but, honestly, I’d rather just drink it.And
I’m glad that I moved on from smelling it! This is amazing! I’ll admit,
this is not an everyday drinking beer. It’s challenging. I don’t want to
sit around with my friends at a bbq and throw back a few of these. That
said, with the right food...maybe some herbed salmon as the beer would
really cut the fat and the herbs and yeast would go great
together...this would be a fine accompaniment to a night with good
companionship. The grapes are just as forward in the taste as it was in
the smell, with their lightly acidic presence starting this beer off
similar to a Belgian Flanders Red almost, just minus the vinegar-like
flavor. The malt is closest to a Belgian-style Dubbel, lending the beer a
figgy, raisiny character, and provides a counter to that brightness
from the grapes. This is really a beer to think on as the complexities
just continue to unwind. I could write pages on this one, but I won’t.
Cynthiana is a testament to why the Rare Beer Club is a great one: the
only way to get this beer is to subscribe.
