South, a Strong Summer Fruit Ale Brewed simply, yet deftly with only Organic Pilsner malt, South is aged in Argyle Pinot Noir barrels for two months then conditioned in a bright tank with 100 pounds of frozen raspberries creating a stunning sunset hue that evokes tropical transcendance. The oak gives complexity to the body and a little Cascade and Amarillo are the spice that reminds us there can be bitterness in paradise.

Rated this 5 days ago at the brewery. 2 1/2 oz sample. The way the guy at the brewery was talking I thought this was going to be a sour ale. Has an old gold hue under a weak little head. Fruity nose. It’s lightly tart with an alcohol burn. Just okay.
