A Note on This Beer

According to legend, Mixology pioneer Donn Beach invented the Zombie cocktail back in 1934 to help a hung over customer get through a business meeting. 

Apparently Donn overshot the booze, because the customer stumbled back in later complaining that the drink had ‘turned him into a Zombie.’ If only he’d had today’s Tropic Level: Zombie Fruited Sour from Modist Brewing, he could have coasted through his day with a smile.

Not that we’d ever suggest drinking beer before a business meeting (wink wink). But, if you’re going to anyway, this tangy, tropical brew is a fantastic choice. The brewers loaded it with epic quantities of passionfruit, pineapple, red grapefruit, orange, lemon, lime and a touch of cassia cinnamon. 

Wheat in the mash gives it an ultra soft body, like it was poured straight from a blender, while a dose of brown sugar creates hints of molasses flavor, just like the dark rum in a tropical cocktail!

It really does taste like something Mr. Beach himself might have whipped up, except the 8.5% ABV won’t leave you staggering around like the undead. Unless you tip back a few cans, which you probably shouldn’t do before a business meeting. Save that for a sunny Saturday afternoon.

Modist was named Most Innovative Brewery at the Minnesota Brewers Cup Awards!

So this beer is everything I want a sour to be. It’s refreshing, but not too sour, fruity, but not too sweet. I feel like any beer maker that wants to create a perfect sour should emulate this.

This tastes exactly like a zombie cocktail! Subtle flavors blended to perfection with a good kick. Not every sour works outdoors in the sun this one does

Very grapefruit forward. The loads of citrus and brown sugar give it a mango flavor profile that was unexpected.

The sourness is there and it has a wonderful beginning, but there’s a strange fruit flavor that I personally don’t enjoy. Still it does have a pleasant enough overall taste, but it wouldn’t be my first choice.
