Sofa Sour: Pineapple Mojito

Tap to rate

A Sofa Sour built on the cocktail of the same name: pineapple with mint and lime. Ripe pineapple leads the aroma, sweet and slightly resinous, with lime peel sharpening it and a cool herbal note of mint sitting behind. The palate follows the same order, the tropical fruit softened by the light grainy malt base of the series. Acidity is brisk and clean, the finish dry, short and faintly minty.

◌ Aroma

Ripe pineapple dominates the nose with a sweet, slightly resinous character that immediately evokes fresh tropical fruit. Sharp lime peel cuts through the sweetness, adding brightness and definition. A subtle herbal mint note emerges in the background, cool and refreshing, lending complexity without overwhelming the fruit-forward presentation.

◐ Taste

Ripe tropical pineapple opens cleanly on entry, supported by a delicate grainy malz foundation that frames rather than dominates. Lime acidity cuts sharply across the mid-palate with a tart bite, while a cool herbal mint note provides secondary complexity. The finish turns progressively dry and crisp, with acidity and a faint minty character combining to create a clean, short conclusion.
