174 Taproom Series 96: Prickly Pear Sour Ale

A beer made with Cactus?!

Heck yeah we did.

Don't be fooled by its thorny exterior; the prickly pear cactus boasts intensely sweet flavors of watermelon, strawberries, and raspberries.

Pouring a blazing strawberry pink, this sour is unfiltered to retain all the wonderful flavors of the fruit.

On the nose, you'll find a blend of watermelon, grapefruit, and raspberry, with a slight lactic sourness supporting in the background.

On the palate, those fruit flavors smack your tongue, along with a hint of passion fruit. The sip ends with a slight tartness to the finish, complementary more than sour.

This light-medium-bodied brew with moderate carbonation adds a delightful "prickly" mouthfeel to your drinking experience. Show Less
