Orpheus Brewing Over and Over and Over
I have had several excellent brews from Orpheus Brewing so approached this one with high expectations. I love pineapple and I love vanilla so a sour ale brewed with pineapple and vanilla sounded right up my alley. The beer pours a bright, clear, golden color with a medium head. The aroma of tart pineapple is very present. The beer has got a nice sour/tart taste without being overly sour. Pineapple is absolutely the dominant flavor with the vanilla showing up in the end. This beer would be a perfect summer-afternoon-barbecuing-by-the-pool beverage. As it was…I had it on a Fall evening with fried chicken and mashed potatoes with gravy. Maybe not the best match-up but it was still a good beer. I need to make it down to Atlanta, GA to visit this brewery sometime soon.
