Braaaaaaaains - Fuzzy
Drekker Brewing Company

Drekker Fuzzy BRAAAAAAAAins Double Fruit Smoothie Sour, 6.7% ABV. Pours dark-orange with a slight ring of bubbles. Aroma is mango, peach, apricot, and vanilla. Taste follows, moderately sweet, slightly tart. Decent mouthfeel, overall outstanding-adjacent.

 

I think this is the most aptly named brew of the decade. I poured the whole can in a big Chouffe glass and it bubbled up like fuzzy brains. It was beautifully gross. I saved 6 photos of it (more than a grandkid gets some days).

The pour is amazing. Everything else is just the usual excellence from Drekker. This one has a sweet fruit in there I can't identify.

Highly recommended. When I go back to World Wines in Mentor if they still have some ill buy more. These should keep fine.

16oz can, adhesive label. Bottom stamp reads 'LIFE FEELS RIPE WITH YOU'.
Hazy, opaque yellow/orange colored body. Bubbly head/surface of similar color to the body, and this persists. Puree sheen left behind. Bubbles follow the body down the glass.
Aroma of peach, mango, and apricot, plus vanilla and a bit of graham cracker.
Taste is mango, peach, orange, apricot, cherry, vanilla, and graham cracker/lactose. Quite sweet (honey sweet) and with a definite level of tartness. Extended aftertaste of all flavors.
Medium mouthfeel. Smooth and creamy texture, but ends more tart and clean. No bitterness. Good carbonation.
Sweet and fruity, with a blended tart note.

 

I actually had higher hopes for this one, though it was indeed tasty and checked all the boxes for a stone fruited sour. Dark golden pour with visible chunks (guess I should have taken a milk frother to it...) and absolutely no head. Sweet vanilla and lactose mixed with peach, apricot, mango, and honey sweetness. Pretty sugary, doesn't have quite the smoothie-feel that I was hoping for, but I see what they were going for.

After moving a lot of pre-mixed antifreeze today, I wanted something simple and fruity. I am using a tulip glass and serving the beer at 44 degrees. The hard pour did not create any head. The color is a murky dark orange. The beer looks like a fruit smoothie from a big chain sugar-infused drink. The beer's appearance is average for this style despite no head.
Nosing the glass, I smell apricots, peaches, mangos, fruity sweetness, vanilla, and lightly toasted malts. The aromas are straightforward.
Tasting the beer that follows the aromas with a light lemon sourness is not enough for me to declare this is a sour beer. I taste apricot, mango, peaches, vanilla, fruity sweetness, lightly toasted malts, and a touch of grass.
The mouthfeel is creamy and chewy, and the finish is sweet with a touch of sourness. The body is medium and has low carbonation.
Beers like this are something else; they taste like adult smoothies. I do not get much sourness in the beer, but it is expected with these Drekker beers.

Pours a thick, thick pinkish brew with no foam whatsoever. Aroma is apricot and peach. Taste is apricot and mango, with a clear peach chaser at the very end. Little to no carbonation; this is all smoothie. A nice fruit deviation from the norm.

 

Exactly as the description entails. Deliciousness canned. Mango is at the front, peach/apricot for body and smoothness. Absolute must try!
