Raspberry Rush

A 0.3% fruit beer combining cold brew coffee with raspberry. The two ingredients hold their own without one flattening the other.

About This Drink

Raspberry Rush takes an unlikely combination — cold brew coffee and fresh raspberries — and makes it work at 0.3% ABV. It sits somewhere between a fruit sour and a cold brew soft drink, and that's not a criticism: the character of each ingredient is distinct enough that neither gets lost. The aroma is led by fresh raspberry. The coffee isn't obvious on the nose but shows up on the palate as a smooth, rounded backdrop to the raspberry's tartness. The berry acidity is clean and assertive; the coffee provides depth without bitterness. They meet most comfortably in the finish, where a coffee note lingers after the raspberry fades. Serve cold. It's an unusual pairing with chocolate desserts, where the combination earns its keep.
