Big aLICe Brunch Crusher

Brewery: Big aLICe Brewing Co. (Long Island City, NY)

Rating: 87/100

Comments: Day 14 of New York State Beers of Holiday Cheer presents Brunch Crusher from Big aLICe Brewing Co (was this beer named after me!?). This sour ale pours a hazy orange-gold color. The aroma is fantastic with both the pineapple and tangerine distinctly coming through. Brunch Crusher is deliciously fruity; pineapple juice is the main flavor, but the tangerine is just strong enough to prevent the flavor from being one-dimensional. It’s a pretty sweet beer, which balances some of the sourness, but it definitely would be a delight with Sunday brunch!
