About this beer
Brettney’s Megamix, a product of Belgium from Dok Brewing, is classified as a Wild Ale with an alcohol by volume of 7%. The label indicates it’s imported by Lime Ventures. Visually, the label is quite stark—primarily white with bold, black lettering, dominated by the product name. Beyond the alcohol content, the label doesn't detail specific ingredients, but the "Wild Ale" designation suggests fermentation with Brettanomyces yeasts and/or the presence of other wild microorganisms imparting a characteristic tart, funky, and often fruity flavor profile. The unusual warning statement, referencing a surgeon general’s advice, adds to the beer's intriguing, somewhat unconventional presentation.
The beer is packaged in a 5.28 gallon container, suggesting a larger format offering, and is entirely produced and packaged by Dok Brewing in Gent, Belgium. While details beyond its style and ABV are limited, the brewing process inherent to Wild Ales typically results in complex flavors exhibiting notes of barnyard, citrus, stone fruit, and a pronounced acidity, all stemming from the unique yeast strains involved.
