Black Kite | Holy Goat Brewing
Tropical Sour with Lychee & Jasmine | ABV 6.0%
👃🏻🤧💥🤯🫧🥭🌸
I've not been drinking much funky stuff, so even with a lil sip of this baddie, the bretty funk throws me off into a loop of eye-squinting, face-cringing and sensory overload.
Let me just say, the aroma of this sour is, imagine this; it's been a sunny & humid afternoon after morning showers, you're in the midst of trekking in Clementi forest and perspiring like no one's business, you can literally smell and taste the heat enveloping you like a pie baking in the oven. This entire experience then being strained through socks after stepping in all the muddy and grassy spots, with a handful of dried hay thrown into this blend. (Yes, don't judge me.)
Taste profile wise, I get heaps of dried longan and syrupy lychee, shredded dried Thai mangoes, and garlands of jasmine buds/blooms. Subtle end of lotus flowers too. There's a sticky pull at the back, in a sour ropes against your tongue kinda way.
As this warms up, it develops into another stronger level of funk, dirt and sour flavours. Wew!
