Review: Templin Family Brewing Foeder-Yuzu And Buddha’s Hand
It was such a pleasure to try Templin Family Brewing’s Foeder-Yuzu And Buddha’s Hand, a concoction that can only be described as delightful. A Norland brew steeped in tradition, it carries the signature characteristics of its producer – a unique blend of elements that perfectly represent the creativity and artisan dedication of the Templin family.
Finding the Brewery
To begin with, let’s talk about finding the brewery – an integral part of the journey. It’s nestled in an unsuspecting corner, a hidden gem waiting patiently for beer enthusiasts such as myself to stumble upon. Their signature blend, the “Dirty Dozen Brett”, is something of a legend, made even more enticing with the addition of yuzu and Buddha’s Hand. Once you taste their signature brew, the trip becomes absolutely worthwhile.
Aroma and Appearance
Moving on to the aroma, scoring a solid 12, the moment you take that first sniff, you’re instantly greeted by a layered, nuanced combination of spice, white tea, and lemon notes that seem to dance in harmony. The aroma betrays a mildly tropical fruitiness which is an absolute pleasure. However, the icing on the cake has to be its appearance. A solid 3, it’s simply stunning to look at, making the anticipation of that first sip even more exciting.
Flavor and Mouthfeel
Equally as incredible is its flavor, a respectable 18. The earthy elements of this brew emerge the moment it hits your tongue, blending seamlessly with a inherent tea-like bitterness and a zesty touch of lemongrass. The finish is a masterpiece of semisweet and pleasantly tannic bitterness, a tantalizing dichotomy that keeps you going back for more.
Equally as important, however, is the 5/5 mouthfeel. Smooth, almost velvety, it carries the vibrant flavors effortlessly, resulting in a sensory experience that’s truly top-tier.
Editors’ Thoughts
As for what our editors thought? They were equally effusive, focusing on the fresh saison-fermentation notes that they described as “white floral, faint white pepper—[sitting] atop a tropical-fruit base.” Evidently, the slight tropical sweetness experienced in the sip brought out a soft character that was hard to define, yet impossible to resist.
