Pink Flamingo

Tap to rate

A fruited sour with raspberry, passion fruit and hibiscus. The tannins released by the fruit flesh add a subtle bitterness that sits against the sourness, making each sip refreshing. Flamingos get their pink from a diet of crustaceans; this beer gets its pink from a ton of raspberries, passion fruit and hibiscus.
