Jelly King (Raspberry, Plum & Cherry)

Dry Hopped Sour Ale w/ Fruit
5.6% ALC./VOL.
500mL

He is a ruler, an overlord, a top dog, a crowned head. In the richly varied domain of prokaryotic microorganisms, Jelly King reigns supreme.

Rather than choosing between sour or hoppy, we decided to create a beer that would be both at the same time. Showcasing the aromatic benefits of a generous dry hop (Citra, Amarillo, and Cascade), harnessing the pleasing acidity of lactic acid producing bacteria (we use a 5-strain house blend), and coming to a bottle near you without a pesky 2 year slumber in oak, Jelly King is the fermented embodiment of having your cake and eating it too.

What it smells like, what it tastes like: Aromas of ripe berry, balanced tart, jammy flavours, and a hint of subtle plum on the finish.  Light bodied, berry-influenced, and crushable.
