Fruit / Vegetable Beer

A term for any beer style with added fruit or vegetables used for flavoring. The base beer can be any style, but is commonly a wheat ale or any lager due to the lighter hop and malt flavors in those styles.

The color varies depending on the base beer style used, and additions can be in the form of whole fruits and veggies, syrup, puree, or extracts. The additions character can be mild to strong, and popular additives include peach, raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries.

Best served cool, 46-54 degrees, and in a pint glass, tumbler, champagne flute.

In ancient Greece, “showing the fig” was a vulgar hand gesture, and Sykophantes means “one who shows the fig”. Earthy and full of dark fruit flavor from hundreds of pounds of figs and dark candy syrup, but with a sourness that cuts the gentle sweetness, Sykophantes is our fall beer.

This ain't your grandma's fizzy blueberry lager. Blueberry Cobbler is a copiously blueberried glass of goodness with real cinnamon and vanilla added. It's purple, not because we add coloring, but because we use natural blueberries. So go ahead and sneak a slice. We won't tell.
