I love the beers of 5 Rabbit, and this gets a 10 simply for the message. Originally made for the bar at Trump Tower in Chicago, they broke the contract after his racism became apparent.
A very well made and well-balanced blonde ale, although the name may have changed to reflect their new viewpoint. #chingatupelo — 6 years ago
Velvety mouthfeel with medium tannins. Robust red and dried fruits, finish of vanilla and graphite. Quaffable af. Would pair with lamb, rabbit, pork, cheese, hummus. Versatile. Honestly not worth it's price point. An off vintage from a delicious vinyard. Would not be hard to find a bottle 1/5 of the price. — 7 years ago
My first Corpinnat.
Aged 51 months on lees, disgorged 5-6-2019. From the Terroirs: Turó del Mosset and Terrasses del Bitlles. No note of varietal make up.
Medium gold. Nose of fungi influenced earthy/lees/tertiary notes. Bracingly dry, with a lean mid-palate which broadens on the finish. Serious, though not exactly delicious. This would do well with gastrnomic dishes, wild mushrooms, shellfish, rabbit, organs. — 2 years ago
In a good place right now, though it will probably open up more in 5-7 years. Lovely medium deep cherry colour with tannins dropping out (signs of bricking) but still strong and exceptionally well layered; high Mauvèdre content is evident on the nose, with hints of beef tomatoes, cooked rabbit stew, and fresh farm soil, matched with Grenachey notes of pepper, strawberries, and sunshine. Great acidity, still prickly tannins, and fantastic length! — 6 years ago
Apple, pineapple, mango chutney, cloved oranges, lemon oil, orange cola in the schnozzola, lighter on the palate though, supple and round, the figs just a veil. Fungal earth that shows off the underbelly. #5rabbits #wheatbeer #dankbeer — 7 years ago
