COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Back in February of this year, we added several hundred pounds of raspberries to oak barrels containing mature sour beer. We then allowed the beer to re-ferment to dryness. The result is Atrial Rubicite, our first barrel aged sour beer to incorporate fruit. Atrial Rubicite is made from well water, barley, wheat, hops, farmhouse yeast, native yeast from the Texas Hill Country, souring bacteria, and raspberries. It’s 5.8% alcohol by volume, has a finishing gravity of 1.005 and is 3.36 pH. It is unfiltered, unpasteurized and 100% bottle conditioned. Atrial Rubicite is our first beer to be packaged exclusively in 500 ml bottles.

Bottle at RBSG. Ruby red color with a small bubbly head. Aromatic with fresh raspberries, sweet and tart. Tastes rich with fresh berries and plenty of sour? a nice level of pucker. Light oak barrel influence, but this is all about the fruit and it delivers wonderful sweet and tart flavors.

UPDATED: AUG 13, 2017 Taster at the RBSG Grand Tasting. In my glass a ruby red color with a white head with pink tinges in the bubbles. Powerful nose with lots of raspberry and some tartness. Medium body. The flavor here is nicely sour with lots of raspberry and oak from the aging. The finish is raspberry tart. One of my favorite beers of this tasting.

Thanks James for sharing this bottle! Poured into a snifter showing translucent purple wine red with sparse white foam.
The nose shows tart notes of tomatoes.
The palate is medium bodied and moderately carbonated. Moderatly tart with tart notes of tomatoes and brett on the finish. The raspberry is a fickle fruit to use in a better apparently...

Pours blood red with small head. Aroma: beautiful aroma of raspberries and cherries with a nice sour touch. Taste: nice sour, with cherries dominating and a touch of spices. Tart and dry in the finish.

Tap @ MBC 2017. Pours deep reddish with a pink head. Aroma of jammy raspberries, light funky, slight minerals, raspberry pits, note of leather. Taste is quite sour, loads of raspberries, barn and funk, very balanced. Good stuff.
