Coastal Sunshine V11
Humble Forager Brewery

 

 

 

Tasted in a Rastal Teku glass from a one pint can on January 23, 2021.

 

 

 

 

Bright purple pinkish body. Pulpy. Nice dragon fruit sweetness; the tart passion fruit is the dominant flavor. Not sure what soursop is, but perhaps it adds a bit of pineapple sweetness. Similar to Dragon Fandango. Lighter medium body, good carb.

16oz with a date

yet another one of these coastal sunshines. This one's really good but not super sour, I like the funky soursop that they add to these beers. Just nothing super memorable here, just an enjoyable beer/ fruit juice

I'm sorry to say this, but this edition was almost like a pit-stop between much better beers. I'm just guessing here

Fresh can from lupulo Santa Cruz.
Bright red smoothie appearance.
Fruity. Good not great.

A: The beer is very hazy and has a blend of cherry red and purple hues. It poured with a quarter finger high pink head that rapidly settled down, leaving a thin collar of of white bubbles around the edge of the glass.
S: Light to moderate aromas of what smells like guava are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and also has flavors of guava along with hints of strawberries.
M: It feels a bit more than light-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is very fruity and is hardly sour in taste or tart on the mouthfeel. It makes for a nice tropical beverage that is easy to drink.

Serving type: can

Vibrant, nearly clear body roughly the color of dragon fruit skin. Good head production, although it is unsurprisingly fairly quickly gone. The color is very attractive and evocative of the fruit added.

Very pungent and fruity nose. I'm completely unfamiliar with Soursop, so I don't know to what fruit, exactly, the earthiness should be attributed; it's very similar to what guava brings to the table. Sweet in a natural and fruity way. I want to dive right in.

Similar on the palate. Hints of both sourness and sweetness, but more than anything it's just juicy. It tastes more like biting into an incredibly juicy fruit than anything else.

Pours hazy full light purple with some pin highlight. Smell;l is fruity with strawberry ,apple and pear. Taste is fresh fruit very nice with kiwi,pear,strawberry and passion fruit. Mouth feel has some tart berry and fruit and is also fruity sweet. This is my favorite so far of HF fruited sours. Well done.

 

Pours a cloudy iridescent red color (like Hawaiian Punch) with a finger of foamy pink head. Looks phenomenal. Has a huge passionfruit aroma. Flavor is mainly passionfruit. Not sure what the other 2 fruit additions taste like on their own, but I am a sucker for anything passionfruit, and this beer is perfect. Has a light sweetness they is countered by a good wall up of tart / sourness. Perfect carbonation, bright acidity makes my mouth water after I swallow the beer. I have had previous iterations of this, so I was psyched to find it on the shelf of an ABC Liquors in Pompano Beach. But I was hesitant to buy it, as it was sitting on the shelf, not refrigerated. But it was canned 3 weeks ago, so I bot it, and was not disappointed. Going to buy more tomorrow. Overall, I am very pleased with this beer and glad it is distributed. Everyone should get to try this one.
