Venn Brewing Cosmosis: Clusterf*ruit

Venn Brewing Cosmosis: Clusterf*ruit.
11.5 % ABV. Venn Brewing, Minneapolis, MN.

This one was released for their semi-anniversary. The real anniversary is in Mid-December, but no-one wants to go out in that time of year, so Venn is celebrating their .5 anniversaries. Makes total sense. I didn't make it out for the party, but there were still some bottles left. (I actually tried this one on my birthday, 6/30/19, but didn't take notes, as I don't on those occasions).

All hazed up, bright golden, slim white head.

In the nose: Big fruit. Bold aromatics. Large and in charge tropical notes and plenty of citrus. Sweet, then tart, and all fruity.

In the mouth: Boom! Yum. Juicy, fruity, sour and slightly sweet. Fresh and delicious. Big and lovely. All the juicy fruit, all the sour. Very nice. Alcohol hasn't hit yet, but, whoa, here it comes....and I can dig it.  I am digging this big time.

Actual Mango, Passion Fruit, Pineapple, and Guava. Sour & strong.
A commemorative release in celebration of our year-and-a-half anniversary.

Ready to take your taste buds on a trip to the tropics? Our kettle sour weighs in at a hefty 11.5% and is brimming with passion fruit, mango, pink guava, and pineapple. Pairs well with resting beach face.

Malts: Domestic Pale, White Wheat, Unmalted White Wheat.

Other: Passion Fruit, Mango, Pink Guava, Pineapple, Dextrose.
