About this release

Inspired by the namesake cocktail: Vault City brewed this fruited sour with spicy ginger and dark rum-like caramel notes. A surprising mix of sharpness, sweetness and a subtle sourness reminiscent of a refreshing summer drink in beer form. This beer comes from Edinburgh by Vault City Brewing, a Scottish brewery that is entirely focused on brewing sour beers. They are known for their modern kettle sours and mixed-fermented beers with which they explore the boundaries of the style. Dark & Stormy is a perfect example of their ingenious approach to the sour genre. With an alcohol content of 4.8 percent, this is a very drinkable sour that's perfect for warm days. The combination of spicy ginger, dark rum-like caramel notes and the fine sourness makes this beer an interesting middle ground between a classic cocktail and a craft beer. The fruited sour provides extra complexity and a refreshing finish. Dark & Stormy from the 440ml packaging is a beer that will appeal to both beer lovers and cocktail enthusiasts.
