A Note on This Beer

There’s a phenomenon happening in the craft world, and it’s transforming beer fans into thirsty zombies!

Only, these zombies aren’t after human flesh — they’re after the berrylicious taste of Braaaaaaaains - Blueberry, Plum, and Pomegranate!

The Drekker slushy experts loaded today’s deep-purple Braaaaaaaains with piles of plump blueberries, sweet plums, and tart pomegranates, along with lactose and vanilla beans. The result is a sumptuous smoothie as thick as an actual Jamba Juice!

You can almost hear the walking dead moaning “Braaaaaaaains!” as they rate this brew a blood-tingling 4.39 on Untappd:

“HOW ARE THESE ALWAYS SO GOOD?!” @Brendan H.
“A super tasty, boozy fruit smoothie!” @Alex L.
“This is excellent. Tons of ripe fruit, both sweet and slightly tart, that coats your tongue and lingers.” @Brent D.

Heads up: Drekker’s undead craft-fans aren’t slow like the zombies in the movies. They’re dang fast! So, if you want a bite of these Braaaaaaaains, you’ll have to act quick.

Rated 4.39 on Untappd

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!

Make sure to roll it well first. This tastes like a great fruit smoothie. Although my husband got sublet bloody mary notes? I thought it was great!

This was surprisingly good. My husband who isn't a fan of sours really enjoyed this one. Loved the hint of vanilla.

Flavor not too bad, nice fruit flavor, but pretty thick consistency. The smoothie part of the description is accurate.

Ordered from Tavour in a six pack (yeah its that good). Chilled this and we are writing the review on the last one drinking in sadness. We poured this beautiful beer in our trusty imperial pint glass. Look: dark purpose with a finger size pink head that eventually dissipated and left a nice small pink foam on the glass. The lacing was of foam and puréed fruit that hung around through the last sip. So much yummy fruit hanging around like a true smoothy. Smell: light blueberry, plum and candy sweetness with some vanilla. Taste: candy-like fruit roll up flavors... sour blueberry dominates with the plum, with training mild fruit flavors and lingering vanilla. Feel: full mouthfeel with a tickle of carbonation. Sour note and the lactose add to the full feeling. Overall we think this is one of the best braaaaaaaains additions for Drekker. The fruit smoothy notes in this one is more like candy than it is a swing of beer. The vanilla, blueberry and plum, combined with the lactose provides a great mouthfeel, true fruit smoothy with a super drinkable, well hidden 8.1 ABV. This is one of our favorite smoothy beers! Cheers everyone!

Blueberry is dominant with a bit of pomegranate and you can’t really taste the plum. This is a good sweet sour not too sweet but not bitter. You can taste the 8% but it’s a good balance. Drekker did it again.

I reallynloled this, but was sad that the plum was the only real flavor I could taste. It overpowered the blueberry and pomegranate. I had been reallu looking forward to trying these braaaaains brews too.

Well balanced flavor. Strong notes of plum and blueberry. 10/10 thicker than a bowl of oatmeal.

Wish it was a bit thicker however the 8.1% makes up for that with the good buzz this one provides.

Pretty solid brew here! Little too much pomegranate IMO was hoping for more a plum flavor to come thru. A taddddddd too much vanilla too but still would crush more!

Was much sweeter than expected. Didn’t hit much on the sour, and got the blueberry more than other fruits.
