Looks can be deceiving, and our new blend is
the perfect example. The Dragonfruit is one of
nature’s most beautiful edible offerings. Pink
and green with pineapple like folds and turns,
it protects the purple-red or stark white interior
flesh of this delicate fruit. The flavour contained
within could best be described as timid, but
still bold. In our pale sour base, we needed
to make sure that these subtle fruit flavours
came through. In order to do so, we needed
to increase our fruiting rate with this particular
fruit. One might think that means a little more
than normal. Not at all. We added so much
Dragonfruit to this blend that we needed two
tanks to fruit it. Like 50% more fruit than our
highest fruited blend. This release holds the
Trial & Ale record for “most fruit ever” and we
could not be happier with the results. A winelike
profile, with almost no tannin extraction left
us very pleased. A flirtatious Brettanomyces
linger brings the taste home. This blend
benefits from a serving temp slightly lower
than cellar temps. We look forward to how this
continues to develop over time. Show Less
