🦞 LOBSTER & FRIENDS COLLAB #5 🦞
Consider the Lobster
Our fifth Lobster & Friends collaboration gets even more crazy.
Brewed with our friends at Hudson Valley Brewery , Consider the Lobster is named after the famous David Foster Wallace essay.
This is a thought-piece, and a style that both of us do so frequently, it was only natural that we put our heads together on this recipe! This heavily fruited sour leans deep into both of our favorite styles, balancing bright acidity with lots of fruit, and often curious ingredients. Hudson Valley has long been an inspiration for us in this category and this was such an exciting collab for us.
Consider the Lobster is brewed with simcoe cryo hops and NYS wildflower honey, then conditioned with 🥭 Alphonso Mango, 🍍 Pineapple, 🍋 Sudachi Lime,🧂 Maldon Flaked Sea Salt, and a kiss of🥛 Milk Sugar.
The result is intensely aromatic, tart and jucy, bursting with lush mango, ripe pineapple, vibrant citrus, and a refreshing pop of citrus and salinity that keeps everything bright and incredibly drinkable. Sweet. Tart. Tropical. Completely over the top!
Consider the Lobster releases July 31 as part of Lobster & Friends, available on draft at all three Aurora Brewing locations and in limited-release cans.
