Collective Arts Brewing Pina Colada Sour Sour / Wild Ale at 5.2% ABV (C$5.49 at Okotoks Co-Op, 473 ml, packaged on 16-Jul-2019, acquired 28-Aug-2019, reviewed 29-Aug-2019)
Appearance: slightly hazy pale gold with a thin white head diminishing gradually to a thin ring, minimal spotty lacing. (3/5) Aroma: toasted coconut, pineapple, hint of funk. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate tart, low bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate-lively carbonation, tart finish. (4/5)
I was pretty leery of this, to be honest, and I probably wouldn’t have picked it up if it weren’t Collective Arts. But, definitely no regrets here: it’s heavily dominated by toasted coconut, but tart pineapple rounds out the piña colada flavour. Very different, but lots of fun. (16/20)
