The vibrant variety of flavors in our Thai Tom Kha makes it easy to see why this is one of our most awarded sour ales. Coconut, Lemongrass, Galangal, Kaffir Lime Leaf and Lactose combine to make a distinctive flavor unlike any other beer. Could it be the best beer inspired by a Thai soup ever?

Pours cloudy pale yellow. Aroma of lactose, guava, mango fruity. Taste has lemongrass, more lactic elements, guava, passionfruit. Palate has moderate levels of passionfruit, some salt, lactic. Quite good.

12 oz. Aroma is very much like the Thai soup with notes of coconut, lemon and ginger. Pours murky orange with floaties and a two finger off white head that collapses into a ring quickly. Taste is highly sour (8/10) with flavors of Thai Tom Kha. A little thin in the mouth. Interesting.

Coconut, lemongrass, some lemon. Kind of comes off as what they intended. Golden pour with decent head. Tart finish. Tap at Savor.

Excepted to hate this cause the additional lactose but the lemongrass tea sweet sour vibe is pretty nice, refreshing.

12oz can picked up at Wanderlust. Pours cloudy dirty orange, small off-white head that dissipates quickly, no lacing. Coconut, vanilla, lemon, herbal, tart, some sweetness. Tasty
