Dandy Brewing Company The Jungle Bird – Sour Red/Brown at 5% ABV

Dandy Brewing Company The Jungle Bird Sour Red/Brown at 5% ABV (C$7.36 at Willow Park Wine & Spirits, 650 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 25-Apr-2017, reviewed 1-Oct-2017)

Appearance: clear cola brown with one fat finger of fine light beige head, good retention and patchy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: mild, brown sugar, pineapple and tropical fruit, lime. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate tart, mild bitter. (7/10) Medium-light body, moderate-high carbonation, off-dry mildly tart finish. (3/5)

Not unpleasant for a kettle sour. Mild aromas include brown/Demerara sugar, pineapple and other tropical fruits, and a pleasant lime tartness. This last comes through on the tongue, particularly in the finish. Pretty decent overall. (14/20)
