Sour In The Rye - Pineapple And Coconut
Bruery Terreux

 

Appearance: Slightly cloudy amber color with a slight pink tint. The beer has a fairly generous off white head that slowly dissipated.

Smell: Moderate level of funk and citrus fruits aromas.

Taste: Fairly prominent citrus notes dominate. I also get some mild acetic notes. I'm not picking up any coconut or pineapple notes.

Mouth-feel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.

Overall: I'm a big fan of Sour in the Rye without any adjuncts so I found this beer tasty. What I didn't get was any hint of the coconut and pineapple added to this variant.
Edit: When this beer got close to room temperature I would get the slightest hint of coconut at times.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2020 release. Poured into a Bruery RS tulip glass.

Appearance is exactly like other SiTR that I’ve had the pleasure of trying (regular and w/Kumquats). The smell though is lacking any hint of either Pineapple or Coconut.

Not sure what happened here with this beer, but the taste is completely devoid of pineapple and coconut, which is not only strange, but completely disappointing.

It’s still a very good sour in its own right - as I’ve found is no surprise from the Bruery- but I can’t rate this beer very high due to it missing the two featured elements. I thought I may have been going crazy, or my palate is fried, but another BA posted recently that he had the same experience. At this price point, I would have a tough time pulling the trigger on another bottle.

holy crap!

 

Rating this beer from last year. I see some negative reviews on this one, but they are reviewing a different version, the cask variation. This initial beer last year was hands down the best sour beer ever produced. I pray nightly, that I can get more growler fills for summer time. Best thing I have ever had in beer.

Had a cask of this at The Bruery... I honestly don't get the hype, fresh coconut adds a very odd smell and flavor to lighter beers. Mash and Coconut was incredible, but this really fell flat.

 

 

Had on Breury Terreux preview day. Every time this is released it will bring me down to the Bruery just to try it. Cant wait for the opening of terruex.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Without any hesitation, one of the best beers I have ever had the pleasure to enjoy. I got a growler in a trade, and shared it at a tasting, and all who attended agreed that it was truly spectacular. The nose was exquisite, rich coconuts with tropical pineapple. The mouthfeel was in my top two of all time, it was creamy and luscious, almost silky. And the flavor - I have loved the SITR variants, and this was the absolute pinnacle. I gush, but this beer deserves it!
