A Note on This Beer

When it comes to brewing Smoothie Sours, Energy City goes all out. They’re famous throughout the Midwest and beyond for stuffing thousands of pounds of fruit into each Bistro Grande they release!

They stuffed today’s edition to the brim with strawberries, coconut, and bananas — putting their supreme brewmaster twist on a classic diner drink.

With each Jamba Juice-thick sip, ripe strawberry brightness charges across the taste buds, complementing the gentle pucker of the Berliner Weisse base. Then come the bananas, lending their nutty sweetness to balance out the berry tartness. Creamy coconut creeps in last with a surge of warm vanilla notes, injecting this strawberry banana smoothie with satisfying tropicality.

The beer geeks at 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.”

Really unique texture. Love the strawberry banana flavor but there’s only a hint of coconut. Did have a bit of grit but you can tell it was fresh fruit. Absolutely delicious.

Not gonna lie, I didn’t expect an actual smoothie out of this. Just figured when they say “smoothie”, they meant fuller in body, but it’s a smoothie all right. One delicious, frothy, effervescent smoothie. Just wish it wasn’t $8/can.

This is the Bistro Grande I've been waiting my whole life for. I feel like they took their reviews seriously on Tavour and actually paid attention to the feedback. This flavor is absolutely their best by far, not only in notes but also consistency. There have been other Bistro Grandes I've tried which had great flavor but were far too thick/pulpy and gave me an upset stomach. This one truly shows that they've learned to evolve past that and create a beverage that is not only decadent in flavor but the right consistency without going overboard on the sugar, OR making it too thin/bitter. Well done and props to this brewery for paying attention to their clients because I can tell that was absolutely the case.

The strawberry and banana is great, but the coconut comes through on the front with a suntan lotion type taste. Rating would be much higher without the coconut.
