New Image Brewing Co Fruitlegger - Hawaiian Bonfire
What the brewers say
“Fruited sour ale with pineapple, lemon juice, and jalapeño.”
What our panel thought
“Round, juicy pineapple and smoked chiles dance in both the aroma and the flavor. Lip-tingling waves of heat are quite pronounced with acid and capsaicin teaming up, but the sweetness of the fruit softens the bite. The lemon stays in hiding until the finish, but it offers a nice final statement.”
What our editors thought
“Smoky grilled pineapple on the nose, sweet-sour sip with an intense pepper heat. Unusual, but alluring, as the pepper heat heightens the perception of the sweeter fruit.”
