Italian ice cream inspired sour beer with sweet notes from milk sugar and fruits. Refreshing and loaded with fruits. Brewed with blueberry, banana, ube yam & violet plant.

Czas na pierwsze kooperacyjne Gelato! Razem z ekipą bułgarskiego Beer Bastards uwarzyliśmy:

GELATO: BLUE VELVET

Inspirowany włoskimi lodami słodko-kwaśny pastry sour doładowany po sufit jagodami i bananami, w którym głęboką, fioletową barwę uzyskaliśmy dzięki dodatkowi puree z różowego batata (popularnego bułgarskiego dodatku do lodów) oraz fiołków, które w przeszłości były często używane do barwienia soków dla dzieci produkowanych w Bułgarii.

Intensywny banan i jagoda, przyjemnie gęsta tekstura, balans pomiędzy słodyczą i kwasowością przechylony delikatnie w stronę tej drugiej.

Dark red-purple body, with a creamy, pink head. Aroma of berry sweets, bubblegum, some citrus, moderate sourness. Tastes similar. Medium, a bit creamy mouthfeel. Finishes sweet, slightly sour, fruity, with sweets. Too sweet throughout and the berry aromas feel quite artifical. I've had much better pastry sours. Score: 7 / 4 / 7 / 3 / 14

Tap at Drinkoteka, thx Barba! Murky purple body, pinkish head. Pleasant blueberry ice cream aroma. Blueberry ice cream taste, bit melted. Pretty much nails what it emulates.

On tap at Craft & Draft, pours an opaque dark purpleish pinkish red with a small pink-tinged beige head. Aroma brings out notes of blueberry, vanilla ice cream, and a touch of banana. Flavour is sweet and sour, with lots of vanilla ice cream and banana upfront, complemented by sweet blueberries. It's an atrocity but it's not terrible. Not what I want to drink, but it does sandwich big stouts decently.
