A Note on This Beer

Thrillist credits Divine Barrel Brewing as one the Best Breweries in Charlotte, noting that today’s Zest Intentions exemplifies their GABF award-winning brewing prowess!

One glowing gulp is all it takes to see why. With its rush of bright orange, puckering lemon, tart lime, and lush grapefruit, this Fruited Berliner absolutely drips with thirst-quenching flavor.

It begins as a clean Berliner Weisse, then the brewers layer in the juice and zest of ALL those citrus fruits. It’s ridiculously refreshing, blasting the taste buds with fresh-squeezed flavor. It’s almost like they infused an orange with a little booze and stuck a tap on it.

With a few of these mega chillers in the cooler, you’ll be prepped for any hot weather task. Imagine grasping a frosty can after washing the car, mowing the lawn, or weeding in the garden. The icy condensation immediately cools you down, its rich, zesty contents the perfect reward for all that hard work.

Well done — now enjoy the juicy glory you’ve earned!

Heavy citrus, I got a lot of the sourness from that. If it was a bit sweeter I'd like it, otherwise it's ok.

Decent sour. Good citrus nose, very lime flavor on the palate. Pretty good, not sure I’d buy again but would certainly drink it.

Very very tart lime. It would be great with spicy food but it was a tough one to drink by its self to the end….

Definitely closer to the sour end of the spectrum. Was expecting a little more of a refreshing experience but that’s not how it came out. Decent for a sour and very tart. Not the worst I’ve ever had but not something I’d buy again.

Very one dimensional. Straight line and lemon juice with a flat finish.

This little number is light and refreshing. Super crisp, nice and tart and you get all the fruit notes lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit. If you are a sour fan you will want to try this.

Big citrus aroma with lime really shining. Tartness really takes over the taste with the grapefruit and lime trying to fight through. Enjoyable and refreshing.

On the more tart side, so just be aware if you’re new to sours. I like a good citrusy sour, but this was almost a little overwhelmingly so. refreshing but don’t need anything more than one in a sitting.

Not sure if it was just the can I had, but it was way too carbonated for my liking. The flavor was great, but the bubbles were too much.

Strong scent of citrus, bordering on tropical. Lemon and lime come through most strongly in flavor. Tart without becoming overly sour.
