Double Strawberry Marg Sour Anyone?! Brewed to honor the insanely delicious strawberry margaritas served at our pub in Monterey (although typically ordered spicy - no spice in this beer) we’ve combined strawberry, lime, orange zest and agave to concoct this absurdly delicious eight percenter. 8th Anniversary beer.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated May 04, 2022. Aroma is very fruity with lots of orange zest and lighter notes of lime. Light strawberry notes and hints of agave. Faint grain notes and light alcohol notes. Pours a murky, reddish color with pink and orange hues with a medium sized, medium thick, off-white head that recedes steadily to the edges where it lingers for a bit. Faint lacing and fairly long legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with medium light acidity and faint grain notes. Low bitterness and low alcohol notes. Very fruit forward with lots of strawberry and lime notes. Lighter notes of orange zest and hints of agave. Mouthfeel is full bodied with low carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, an alright beer for what it is. It has tons of residual sugar and fruit puree. Lots of fruity flavors with acidity that is not particularly sharp. It's a fairly easy drinking smoothie beer with the alcohol we'll hidden.
