55 Funk - Blueberry Lemonade
Greater Good Imperial Brewing Company

A single pour that emptied a pint can's contents into a clear glass liter mug allows these observations. Its color is almost reddish amber, as the contribution of the blueberries only modestly effects the overall. The head, even closer to white, did not sustain. This is a sour and as such, the lemon inclusion, with its sour and tart characteristics, dominate a full and easily recognizable aroma. The taste is just what is advertised. A not sweet at all lemonade tasting brew, with just enough blueberry to knock off a soury edge and add another taste layer. Like many from this brewery, the 8% ABV is barely noticed. The negatives are marginal. There's no head, nor glass lacing, but that's an expected trait from a fruited kettle sour. The mouthfeel runs just a little bit thin, but that's an expected trait from a fruited kettle sour. So, there's really nothing to dislike, as long as you accept this for what it is. That is an enjoyable sour, heavily flavored by lemon, with some berry references in the background. Very much worth seeking, if you like the style.

16oz can. Can bottom is stamped 'CANNED ON 06/29/22'.
Cloudy, reddish orange colored body. One finger of reddish tint head settles back to a thin cap and ring. No lacing.
Aroma is big with the tart lemon and grounded some with the earthy blueberry.
Taste is a real fight between the lemon and the blueberry, with the mix mellowing more in the aftertaste. A definite mix of tart and sweet.
Sticky mouth feel, with minor tooth scraping. Has drying quality in the mouth. Good carbonation.
Begins with a contrasting flavor mix but the blend works a little better as the beer is imbibed. Refreshing and each sip calls for another.
