ROLL UP, ROLL UP AND TRY TO KEEP UP.

Now spiraling into the spotlight, twisting through the laws of physics and flavor alike, it’s the one, the only… Cirque Du Swerve!

This bendy little freak was brewed with our flexible friends at Ārpus Brewing Co. all the way from Latvia, and it’s twisted in all the right ways. We stuffed this Rareberry Fruited Sour with tayberry, strawberry, raspberry, marshmallow and vanilla to give it a flavor profile that folds in on itself like a clown car crash in a cotton candy cloud.

A tangled tornado of tart & sweet, ready to bend your palate into a pretzel. Do you dare to taste the twist?

Drekker/Ārpus collab Drekkerfest 11th anniversary Cirque Du Swerve The Contortionist Raspberry Fruited Sour, 6.3% ABV. Pours moderately thick and murky red with a one-finger light-red head that left puree residue. Aroma is incredible raspberry/strawberry and marshmallow/vanilla. Taste is strong berry, slight vanilla, quite sweet, equally tart. Decent thick and smooth mouthfeel, a bit over-carbonated. Overall outstanding.
