Funkwerks Pineapple Provincial

What the brewers say

“We ferment with a Belgian yeast strain famous for fruity flavors and a dry finish, making it the perfect complement to fruit.”

What our panel thought

“An initial sweet, corn-like malt aroma eventually fades, allowing subtle tropical notes of pineapple, passion fruit, coconut, and grapefruit pith to come through. Lemon-lime character with a hint of agave and salt. Soft velvety mouthfeel atop a well-carbonated base. Somewhat flabby on the finish.”

What our editors thought

“Funky, slightly sweaty fruit note begs for a touch less attenuation to sell the tropical cocktail aspect.”

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

Servaes Passionfruit Distant Light

“Looks like fruit juice, smells like guava juice with sulfur, tastes like sweet-and-sour guava juice. It’s thick, and the cloying sweetness doesn’t seem to want to go away. Super-yeasty nose, cut with orange pulp. Smoothie is right—they’ve nailed the mouthfeel and the salt adds to the creaminess.”

Funkwerks Raspberry Provincial

“Berry and tropical fruit notes dominate the aroma with aspects of raspberry, blackberry, passion fruit, and pineapple. Raspberry jumps off the palate with bright acidity up front, flowing into a nice subtle lemon profile. Soft, pillowy mouthfeel falls into an assertive lactic finish.”

La Cumbre Brewing Co. Mango Pineapple Gose

“Moderate tart citrus/tropical aromas, lightly funky with mango, very overripe fruit. Semisweet body with pineapple flavors that give way to a rustic edge. Acidity well in balance with malt and sweetness of fruit. Overripe flavors carry through.”
