Kykao - Reverse Engineered Malagouzia - Grape Ale (Greece)

Yunan Kykao's another experimental beer, Malagouzia, made in 2020. This beer, like Kykao's other produced Rose, but this time fermented from Malagouzia grape skins.
Quite dry beer/wine. The line is quite blurred in this beer too, giving a white wine-like taste.
It is quite enjoyable to drink such experimental beers occasionally and it enhances the palate.

Kykao - Reverse Engineered Rosé - Grape Ale (Greece)

I am going back to my favorite Greek brewer Kykao. This is an experimental Rose beer that I am drinking.
It leans more towards the wine side in terms of color, smell, body and taste. You can think of it however you like.
Organic wine grape skins were used in its production and it was fermented with the microorganisms on these skins.
I can say it tastes like a slightly bitter, full-bodied wine.
It's a different kind of beer, worth trying.

Kykao - Reverse Engineered Malagousia - Grape Ale (Greece)

Malagousia is a special Greek grape. It is a type that was rediscovered in the 1970s, and unique wines are made with this grape. Kykao has used the skins of Malagousia grapes in this beer, and fermentation has occurred with the bacteria found in the skin of these grapes. I couldn't tell if barley was used, but I think it was, and it turned into beer.
As the name suggests, Malagousia is an experimental beer, actually a wine hybrid.
It is a quite sour beer, you can compare its taste to lemonade. It may disappoint traditional beer lovers, but it has a different taste. However, you don't feel the high alcohol content that is almost like wine.
