Introducing PINK LEMONADE Kettle Sour, poised to take San Diego Beer Week by storm! Clean lagers & hopped up IPAs aren’t the only tricks up our sleeve- This kettle sour clocks in at 6% ABV and tastes exactly like the name. We started with a tart base beer - added a touch of milk sugar to balance, fermented it with real raspberry and cherry puree, & finished it with loads of hand–zested Eureka lemons. While perfectly pink in color, a brilliant lemon aroma leaps from the glass. The tart citrus flavor evolves into a snappy, refreshing finish with just a hint of pilsner malt to remind you that it's still a beer in your hand!

Grabbed a can of this and a bunch of other stuff on a recent trip to Windmill Farms. Untappd description was “Introducing PINK LEMONADE Kettle Sour, poised to take San Diego Beer Week by storm!

Poured a medium amber clear color with two fingers of frothy-to-fizzy off-white head, which dissipated quickly. Plenty of bubbles coming up from the bottom of the glass. Decent watery lacing. Bad retention. (Sight - 3.25)
Smelled pink lemonade, raspberry, cherry pie filling, purple grape and some plum. Not as good from the can. (Smell - 4.25)
Tasted just as good as the nose, maybe better. Got pink lemonade, raspberry, cherry puree, purple grape, strawberry and plum. (Taste - 4.50)
Medium-to-light body. Creamy-to-sticky texture. Average carbonation. Long, tart finish. (Feel - 4.50)
Damn. Really liked this. It was an excellent kettle sour. (Overall - 4.50)
