Our beloved lineup of heavily fruited, lightly tart offerings first debuted in November of 2019, with more than one dozen iterations making their way into your glass since. We're lucky to call the oldest cranberry growing state in the country our home, so it's only fitting that we release a special variant built for pairing alongside carved turkey, pumpkin pie, and mashed potatoes.

Daily Serving: Cranberry, Pomegranate, and Blackberry pours a striking burgundy color with a rocky hibiscus tinged foam cap. The nose consists of cranberry jam, fresh pomegranate juice, and blackberry turnovers. Plush, with a well-rounded, soft finish, the gentle acidity balances a touch of sweetness.

MALT: American 2-row Barley, Flaked Wheat, Valley White Wheat, Acidulated Malt
HOPS: CTZ
ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS: Cranberry, Blackberry, Pomegranate

Served in a tulip

Gorgeous appearance. The opaque, burgundy colored body was topped by an inch-tall, super tight and creamy, light magenta crown that slowly fell to a thin film and a clingy, lasting collar. A wall of streaky lacing stuck along the glass.

The aroma was very berry dominant. Freshly picked berries perhaps. Really jammy and sweet. Even though the beer contained no raspberry, I thought it came through more than the blackberry character. I definitely did not detect either the pomegranate or the cranberry. As the beer sat, the blackberry made its presence more known.

The flavor profile was similar to the nose but more complex. Berry notes led things off. Loads of ripe raspberry and/or blackberry. The pomegranate was subtle but detectable in the center. Touch of wheatiness. Cranberry notes appeared on the back end and intensified in the finish. Bit of zesty lemon too. Good dose of lingering tartness and acidity after the swallow.

Excellent creamy, frothy and slick mouthfeel. Fuller bodied for the style. The liquid contained a fine, moderate effervescence that fluffed up nicely on the palate.

Daily Serving - Cranberry, Blackberry & Pomegranate is another impressive release in this series. Although it is neither particularly notable or unique compared to the others, it was still very enjoyable and dangerously crushable.

Pours garnet red and smooth. No fruit residue in the glass. Smell is mostly tart cranberry. Taste is close to Ocean Spray cranberry sauce. But without the metal can aftertaste. Feels thick, smooth and fizzy on the way down. A delicious seasonal variety of this brew.

Pretty interesting and nice, tart fruity cranberry flavors, juiced pomegranate and blackberry preserves all layered atop a graham crackery wheaty malt base with hints of sweet spice notes and maybe some orange
