Accolades/Press:
Ranked among some of the most sought after and respected sours in the United States, Area Two Experimental Brewing’s Brett Noir earns a 92 rating from Wine Enthusiast.
In its “Recommended Sour Beers To Try, 90 Points And Above,” Wine Enthusiast emphatically states, “The key to a well-made wild ale is balance. Forward sour, tart and fruity aromas and flavors produced by wild yeast strains and bacteria should be center stage, but not completely overwhelming. A malty core or rich fruit flavors should lend balance to the bright acidity and funky overtones. A pleasant, subtly tannic texture and dry finish, which also comes from oak aging, helps to round out the experience.”

Urban Funk is fermented using a one-of-a-kind mix of wild yeast — found right in our small city by the beer-loving scientists at a nearby university. Our blend is especially rare, having been captured during the 2012 hurricane, Superstorm Sandy. Fermented in concrete and aged in steel, the result is a totally experimental, totally sour and funky beer straight out of Stratford, CT.

Twoquila – Civilization has come up with some great flavor combinations, like tequila and lime. We took our Two Roads Persian Lime Gose, brewed it with agave and aged it in authentic tequila barrels from Jalisco, Mexico. Time spent in these barrels imparts an oaky character and subtle notes of blue agave. A touch of fresh lime juice perfects this most delightful beer. Salud!
