Alvarado Street Brewery Hot Pink Sherburps

“A refined, tropical-fruit-punch character—the dragon fruit/grapefruit combo works especially well, and the guava adds an earthiness without coming across like dirty socks. The classic beer-flavor element is minimal. Thoroughly enjoyable—tropical without the generic Kool-Aid quality. Dragon fruit lends it a beautiful pink color. Big tropical-fruit aroma transitions into big tropical-fruit flavor, while the moderate sweetness throughout is balanced by a moderate acidity. Finishes with tart fruit character. Big flavors, but it works and finds an overall balance. Fun beer!”
