Add a bit of Southern flair with Southern Sol — a mixed-fermentation double IPA conditioned on peach, apricot, cinnamon sticks and fresh vanilla. Southern Sol builds on a hoppy base of Rakau, Cascade, and Citra hops and our native wild yeast to balance sweetness, hoppiness, and a bit of funk.

Poured from 750ml crowler can into glass. Fill date marked on label is '1/17(2018)'.
Cloudy, deep gold colored body. Two finger white head quickly dissipates to bubbly ring and islands. Spotty lacing. Lots of off white floating particles in the beer.
Aroma of peach and apricot, and vanilla.
Taste is tangy and fruity, with peach and apricot. The hops add to the stone fruit (apricot) and citrus fruit taste. The cinnamon sticks may be adding a little zing here but tough to pick out distinctly. Vanilla kind of floats above the fruit tastes. Wild Mind beers always seem to have a little yeast funk present, and it is here between the aroma and the taste.
Medium mouth feel, with a little bite.
This could be put into the fruit beer style, but there is enough of a hop presence to keep it in the IPA style. No real bitterness, but has a little zing and funk to balance the sweetness. This beer reminds me of pulpy fruit juice because of the sweet fruit taste and the high concentration of floating particles.
