Quench Quake
BrewDog

Copenhagen 21/5 2019. 33 cl bottle from Meny, Østerfælled Torv, Kbh Ø. Pink and yellow version of BrewDogs usual label design. They promise me that this beer will give me a "Citrus Blast of Seismic Proportions".

Pours clear yellow with a big white head. Bubbly. Settles as flimsy patch of thin foam unable to cover much. No lacing.

Aroma is fruit bowl of tart and citrus things. Grape fruit, citrus with slightly sweeter hints of orange. A bit one-dimensional but refreshing.

Strong carbonation. Thin, watery and fizzy texture.

Flavor is lightly sweet followed by a stronger tart sourness. Aftertaste is strangely enough a bit sweeter - but still fairly fruity sour. Lingers fairly short.

Lemonade-ish - even though they forgot the sugar. Uncomplicated sour drink.

 

 

 

 

Brewdog Quench Quake. Es handelt sich um ein Fruchtbier mit 4,6% ABV. An Früchten wurden Grapefruit und Mandarinen verwendet, wenn man Dick Olafsson Glauben schenken darf. In der Farbe goldgelb und blank mit wenig Schaum. Es riecht fruchtig nach Äpfeln. Der Körper ist schlank aber nicht komplett ohne Restsüsse. Ich schmecke sauren roten Apfel und rosa Grapefruit. Die Säure ist zurückhaltend dosiert, die Fruchtaromen sind intensiv und schmecken toll. Ein sehr schönes Sauerbier.

Lata. De Corte Ingles del Duque. En copa Teku. Programando GestorRed2. Muy limpia, con mucha fruta acida que si bien es agradable, resulta algo artificial, como si se tratase de un refresco industrial

On-tap at Hawkes Cidery & Taproom, London, England

S: Light to moderate aromas of grapefruit pulp are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and is somewhat sour with flavors of grapefruit pulp.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied and a bit tart on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.

On tap. Poured a cloudy, golden orange color with a small, white head of bubbly foam. It smelled of grapefruit, sour lemon and caramel. Really tart and sour with a strong grapefruit presence.

 

 

 

330ml bottle fro Tesco supermarket (£1.80):
Lively & tangy throughout, this one was a fresh beer with a sharpness to it & quite a dry, strongly carbonated finish that was sour without quite overpowering. There was a lot of flavour coming through with the zesty citrus & sour apples quite pronounced around the middle, there was a nice balance overall too & although it's not my favourite style of beer, I'm glad I picked this one up & gave it a try at least once.

Not as bad as the Real Ale Guide said...
It doesn't smell THAT impressive (rather reminiscent of champagne?) but it does taste really good and refreshing, like a sour grapefruit soda. And as such, it is pretty enjoyable.
I love sours and I can say with confidence that although this might not be the sourest sour in the world, it is still a good one, does its job pretty well even on this warm autumn afternoon.
I find no problem with it.
