Year of New Beer: Fortuna, Avery Brewing (CO)

Written By: Dion on 08/26/2015

A multitude of aromas greets the nose--lime zest, white grape, green apple, and a bit of brine and funk. On the tongue comes an initial hit of agave sweetness which is quickly brushed aside by the puckering sourness of unripened fruit juice and citrus peel. The middle palate finds traces of oak and a building gose-like salt presence, with hints of tequila heat. Finishes pretty tart and fairly dry. Excellent beer and a fantastic companion to some Georgetown taco truck culinary delights.
