Year of New Beer: Violet Beauregarde, Ethereal Brewing (Lexington)

Written By: Dion on 02/12/2019

Not sure why I've let this one sit in my fridge so long, but finally got around to it tonight. Sharp nose that has plenty of blueberry, but also hints of sour apple and tart grape. Nice malt note that comes off a bit like pie crust. Almost identical in the flavor department as the blueberry provides a moderately sour punch while cursory notes of apple and red wine join the fray. Still get a nice pie crust malt that works really well through the slightly dry finish. Not overly sour, but a very nice beer.
