A Note on This Beer

I got a little daring in the kitchen and tried baking a Key Lime Pie for the first time ever.

If you’ve made a Key Lime Pie, you know it’s not exactly a walk in the park. From squeezing handfuls of limes to get the juice for the filling, to having to wait hours for the pie to chill in the fridge, it’s a treat that takes alot of time and effort.

Honestly, I should have just left it up to head brewer Chris Trelstad and his crew at Adventurous Brewing.

To make today’s Pleased As Pie, Chris poured 4 gallons of high-grade Key Lime purée across seven barrels of lip-pursing Sour Ale. Then, he added heaps of ceylon cinnamon, sweet vanilla, and milk sugar to elevate the Sour sipper to heavenly pie-like richness!

With each taste, cinnamon and vanilla combine to form the flavors of a crumbly graham cracker crust. Meanwhile, the oodles of fresh fruit purée and lactose blend together for the silky smoothness of a creamy, tangy key lime custard.

Each sip is so delightfully inviting, you may want to follow it up with a spoonful of fresh whipped cream!

But, here’s the kicker: everything that Adventurous brews is insanely small-batch. And right now, Tavour is the only place outside of Iowa to get yourself a slice of today’s sweet-tart delight.

With Tavour, it's easy to beer it forward! Just head over to Tavour.com/gifts to send a gift box or gift card to the craft beer lover in your life. Cheers!

Having recently had a lot of sour smoothies that aren’t really sour, this threw me for a loop. Sour? Holy shit yes! Loads of key lime. My mouth is still watering. My lips still puckering.

I think a little more lactose or vanilla or marshmallow would have gone a long way but tastes exactly as it sounds. It is really a great Key Lime Pie Sour.

Pi Day Beer! Really refreshing and limey. I somehow thought it’d be more creamy like this pie, but it’s tasty regardless. I’ll save another for a warmer day!

16oz can from Tavour. Pale yellow green, a little bit of a gush and a towering foam head. Aroma is lime, tart citrus, vanilla. Taste brings a hint of cinnamon, soft tart lime and more vanilla. A bit more tart than the pie, but pretty damn close.
