Sean Suggests for May 2019

I taste colors.  No not caught smuggling CBD oil anywhere.  Just the theme for this month’s beer shopping list.

~LIGHT
Allagash / Darling Ruby 4.50% ABV
“Darling Ruby is a refreshing farmhouse ale with a twist: grapefruit juice and zest. The beer’s specific style is a grisette, a light and refreshing cousin of the modern saison. The combination of a grisette and citrus whirls tangy notes together with tropical aromas-all before landing on a beautifully dry finish.”

~MEDIUM
Upland Iridiescent Apricot 6.00% ABV
“This beer was developed through extensive experimentation by our brewers with different combinations of dried fruits and spices, using Basis as the base beer. Iridescent is a refreshing blonde sour ale, with aromas of apricot and ginger that are followed by tart and tropical flavors after aging in wine barrels for 3-4 months. As the name implies, the flavor of this sour beer appears to change subtly with each sip.”

~BIG
Finback / Ultramarine IPA 7.10% ABV
“IPA double dry hopped with Mosaic and Amarillo.”

All of these beers can be found at Sunset Beer Co. (unless they got bought up real quick)
