“While our imperial stout, Bomb!, is our brewery’s true flagship beer, we’ve brewed and sold more Rainbow Sherbet over the last few years than any other beer, and it’s not close! Now sold across the world, Rainbow Sherbet is sweet, sour, and is exactly as advertised. A sour ale that tastes like a melted rainbow sherbet ice cream cone. Easy drinking at 5.2% ABV and available pretty much everywhere we sell beer, all year long!”
This is the sort of thing that I want to like…but don’t. The sherbet flavor comes through best in the first couple of sips when it’s good and cold, and then it plays second fiddle to the sour taste. I don’t necessarily think this is bad—it just doesn’t work for me.
