311. Against the Grain Brewery (Lousiville, KY) - Gettin’ Limboed in Kentiki

“Inspired by D.C.’s vacays on the Ohio River banks here in Kentiki, we give you a pineapple, mango sour ale that’s as tropical and tikified as D.C.’s riverside cabana. It’s so tasty you might find yourself doing a lil’ limbo. So go ahead, Kentiki, bend over backward and blow out a flip flop for this one!”

Um…well. It does not taste strongly of either pineapple or mango, which strike me as flavors that are far too subtle to make themselves known in a sour. However, this beer was only moderately sour, and not the aggressive slap in the face toward which the style seems to be trending. I got a little bit of pineapple as it began to warm up, but nothing that brought the word mango to mind. It was a pretty good sour, just not an especially flavorful one.
