Rhinegeist Glow (pack of 6) (4.5%)

A fruited sour ale brewed with açaí, prickly pear and passionfruit, plus a subtle addition of sea salt, by Rhinegeist Brewery in Cincinnati, Ohio. The brewery launched in 2013 inside the historic Christian Moerlein bottling plant in the Over-the-Rhine neighbourhood. Passionfruit and nectarine lead the aroma, followed by açaí berry and a faint mineral quality from the sea salt. The palate brings peach and passionfruit early, then prickly pear with subtle rolled-oat smoothness, restrained sourness and sea salt rounding the acidity. The finish is clean and relatively short, with traces of sour plum and apple peel.
