Here we have another culinary infusion coming your way, this time by way of kettle soured deliciousness and pie inspired flavors. Each one of these glorious pie beers start off as a bumped-up version of our standard Berliner Weiss giving it the imperial ABV needed to carry the intense flavors. Once soured and fermented, we add a base of Madagascar Vanilla beans and Cinnamon to emulate the pie’s crust. Finally, we add the filling and toppings! For this particular gem we used Blackberries to create the ultra-rich and slightly tart Blackberry Pie. Remember, good pie should ALWAYS be shared, and so should this beer…or not. Cheers!

Grabbed a can of this and a bunch of other stuff on a recent trip to Windmill Farms. Abnormal’s website called it “Here we have another culinary infusion coming your way, this time by way of kettle soured deliciousness and pie inspired flavors.

Poured a deep amber-to-copper hazy color with two fingers of frothy off-white head. Could see some bubbles coming up along the sides of the glass at different speeds. Very good spotty lacing. Very ood retention. (Sight - 4.00)

Smelled cinnamon, blackberry, vanilla, lime, coconut, whipped cream and tart berry. Smelled even better from the can. (Smell - 4.25)

Tasted even better than the nose. In order got cinnamon, blackberry, vanilla, whipped cream, lime, coconut, tart berry and pie crust. (Taste - 4.25)

Medium body. Creamy-to-sticky texture. Lively carbonation. Abrupt, tart finish. (Feel - 4.75)

Damn. Just another great beer from Abnormal. (Overall - 4.25)
