Austral Calafate if you want bright, refreshing fruit that doesn't weigh you down,
Pietra Rossa if you want richer fruit character with more body to chew on.
Both sit at the same IBU, so bitterness isn't the differentiator—it's the alcohol weight and how each brewery lets their fruit shine. The half-point in ABV might seem small, but you'll feel it in how these beers finish.

Austral Calafate
Austral Calafate hits you with clean calafate berry right up front—tart, slightly tart, almost like biting into fresh fruit at a Patagonian market. It's lean and snappy, the kind of fruit beer that doesn't try to be sweet or jammy. The low ABV keeps everything crisp, and you can actually taste the beer underneath the fruit rather than fruit syrup masquerading as beer.
Pietra Rossa
Pietra Rossa opens with darker fruit—think cooked berries, maybe a touch of stone fruit—and the extra ABV gives it noticeably more presence on your palate. There's a subtle richness here that makes the fruit feel more integrated into the beer itself, not just sitting on top. It's the kind of fruit beer that satisfies more as you go, not just a quick hit of flavor.
