Get whisked away with this Lacto Sour brewed with Mango and Guava. A light base of Pilsner Malt and Wheat sets the stage for an assertive lemon-like acidity from our house mixed Lactobacillus culture. Finally, a massive dry-hop with Australian Vic Secret and additions of Mango and Guava puree complete the transformation. The result is refreshing and tremendously tropical.

On tap, poured into a growler, brought back via helicopter to the Lower Mainland to imbibe on the continent. Per se, shall we say. This pours a very cloudy yellow with pretty big bleach white foam though it doesn't stick around for too long. There is huge, yuge (!!!) mango and passion fruit on the nose yet good, and not to sweet nor snooty, just a nice appetizing fruity vibe to the thing. The flavour is a big sweet and sour mix of passion fruit and mango kicking into a medium finish; not too sour per se but nonetheless very tasty, a big fruit juice kick that actually works and doesn't come across as some cloying sugar bomb. I'm not a big fan of fruity things but this works. It really, really works.
