Libushi Niagara Grape Sour

Bottle. Thanks Megata-san. Nose is weird, some grapes and smoke... Taste has some fruit, smoked ham! But initial grape. Not so sour, but has a little tartness. Feels like it's a little sweet too though. Strange mix. Weird smoky and cheesy finish. Not sure.

golden amber color. No head. Very soft hoppy nose with strong niagara grape nose and modest tartness and faint smokiness. Nice tart mouth, but tons of niagara grape. Very tight body. The smokiness lingers with the grapes. Very odd odd beer but pretty good.

Bottle from the brewery shared. Thanks Shuichi! Pours a hazy straw. Light smoke, wheat and yogurt. Good carbonation, but the flavors are seem a tad off. The smoke isn’t off-putting, but definitely overpowers the flavors. Some light lemon in the background. Tart finish that’s a bit dry. --- Beer merged from original tick of Niagara Grape Sour on 09 Sep 2016 at 21:55 - Score: 7 --- Beer merged from original tick of Niagara Grape Sour on 17 Sep 2016 at 07:25 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.
