A Note on This Beer

When the Smoothie Sour masters at Energy City announced they were releasing two new flavors in their wildly popular Bistro Grande series, fans bombarded their Instagram with comments like:

  • “Hope to see [these] on Tavour soon so that I can get some in California!!” @b_p_king_
  • “Please send [these] to Tavour in the Seattle area!” @erica_loves_beer 
  • “Do you guys ship out of state? I would love to stock up on a couple packs of this!” @johnny_b_good33


Well, craft fans — you asked, and we listened! Today, we’ve got BOTH of these brand new Sours to share!

First up, it’s Bistro Grande - Pink Guava & Banana Smoothie. In this heavily Fruited Berliner, tart and juicy pink guavas dance with creamy, ripe bananas. It’s so refreshing and tropical, you may want to drink it after your morning yoga session!

It pours a gorgeous shade of coral pink, with a mouthfeel as thick as Jamba Juice. At the same time, there’s a delightful effervescence that’ll tickle your tastebuds.

Next, we’ve got Bistro Grande - Raspberry Velvet. Energy City brewed it with silky white chocolate, tart raspberries, and vanilla. Each thick, nectarous sip envelops your tongue in the subtle sweetness of vanilla and white chocolate, followed by a juicy waterfall of raspberry jam. 

With flavors reminiscent of white chocolate raspberry truffles from the finest chocolatier, this Sour deserves to be savored after dinner — possibly with a spoon.

Each brew boasts a seamless balance between invitingly sweet and lip-puckeringly tart. But, all of that thick, juicy fruit cleverly hides an 8% ABV!

Which version will be your new favorite?

PorchDrinking said it best, “if you’re purchasing beer somewhere and see an Energy City Brewing can available, do yourself a favor and grab it.”

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!

Sooo good. White chocolate and raspberry come through strong. I didn’t notice the instructions to roll the can before opening but I can’t imagine the experience could’ve been much better.

The first thing you taste is the raspberry’s juiciness and then you get the creamy white chocolate/vanilla finish. Sweet enough, great balance, not super fizzy. Big fan

White chocolate comes through heavy. Very thick. White chocolate sweet offsets raspberry sour nicely.

Fantastic. Instead of searching for hints and notes the raspberry flavor is in the forefrint of every sip and ends with chocolaty goodness. Fantastic, half the can gone in no time and didn't even realize.

The creamy flavor was strong and covered up a lot of the sour raspberry flavor. Overall a good desert beer that completely covers up any alcohol being consumed.
