BlackStack Brewing may not have been on your radar as a Smoothie Sour powerhouse before today. But, if the jaw-dropping 4.54 UT rating for Ken Burns Presents: Raspberry, Pineapple, and Mango is any indication, they certainly should be.

The brewers jammed so much real raspberry, pineapples, mangoes and creamy lactose into this brew, it pours insanely thick. It’s basically fruit purée spiked with a shot of booze. Good luck getting this sticky sipper to wash off the sides of your glass when you’re done!

Then again, the sweetness of those fruits balances so beautifully against the bright, berry tartness. It’s like paradise for the palate, so maybe washing it off is a waste — better to just lick it off like it’s the inside of an oozy gummy candy wrapper!

Fans just can’t stop singing praises for this pulpy fruit punch:

“On par with the top dawgs of the [Smoothie Sour] category!” @Mike W.

“Perfect 5 rating because it's that good and I love Ken Burns documentaries. Finishes just dry and not too sweet.” @Doug E.

“This might be the best beer I’ve ever had. Idk what else to say. So incredible, smooth and tasty. Delicious.” @Jacob S.

“So freaking good! Fresh, juicy, a good solid funk… Perfect Smoothie Sour [in my opinion].” @Mitchell B.
