Description
We’re just a bunch of beer geeks who have all pondered the same question: “With breweries popping up everywhere else in Alabama, why not in the southern part of the state?” Rather than sit around a bemoan the answer, we decided to do something about it, and the Fairhope Brewing Company was born.

The Fairhope Brewing Company is located at 914 Nichols Ave., just a block off Highway 98 in Fairhope, Ala., and less than five minutes from beautiful downtown. Our taproom is open six days a week, offering a comfortable atmosphere to meet up with friends and enjoy a variety of our hand-crafted beers. We don't have a kitchen, but please feel free to bring in your own food.

16 oz. can, thanks to Timmy! Black, with an average, rocky, tan head. The nose is cocoa powder, raspberry, cream, wet grass, and black pepper. Sweet and sugary, with a mellow, musty sour flavor. Medium body, creamy, and a bit acidic. Interesting and tasty enough for a dark sour.

Bottle. Amber in color with a nice two finger head. Aroma was a tad on the weak side. Notes of citrus fruit and grains. Taste was also very weak. Flavors of grapefruit and roasted grains.

Draft at my hotel bar in gulf shores. Orange pour and soapy head. Nose is citrus and biscuits. Tatses of pine, oranges, crispy biscuit, some earth. Slick palate. Semi bitter. Didn’t need another beer today but alas. Oyster city being counted as a Florida tick through me off and needed this to balance

Single from Fort Walton Beach Liquors. After some fish fry. Pint glass. A not so expected shade of jellied dark piss with a comforting strong lather. Nose is sweet candied lemon essence, raw wheat & half artificial blueberry muffin. Sweet, sharp, chemmy,candied lemon & floral-forced industrial blueberry, with an unwarranted lactose sort of sweetness. Only hard acid & strong carbonation make a few sips go down like cheap soda. No thanks.
