Elm Creek Rare Candy Sour Ale (pack of 4) (6%)

Elm Creek Rare Candy Sour Ale is a 6% ABV fruited kettle sour ale from Elm Creek Brewing Company in Minnesota, sold in a 4-pack of cans. It is loaded with over 40 lbs per barrel of blueberry and raspberry puree. The nose is dominated by blueberry and raspberry with a clean lactic acid tang. The palate opens with clean tart acidity, then ripe jammy blueberry and raspberry sweetness, with notes evoking blue raspberry candy and Sweet Tarts, plus purple grape and blackberry. The finish is medium in length, with lactic acid reasserting the sour identity and a faint berry sweetness.
