Takumi Saskatoon Berry Sour

Because they are swell, my good pal K.F. and her partner J. Lastname brought me a 650mL bottle of Takumi Saskatoon Berry Sour, a wheat sour beer brewed with fresh Saskatoon berries.

At 5.8% and 7 IBUs, Takumi pours a loud pink colour, with a fuzzy light pink head. It has a hefty and tart aroma with notes similar to cranberry. The flavour is also fairly tart, though with a slightly candied taste reminiscent of punchy gummy bears.

The beer was lively and yummy, but a bit to heavily candied to opt for a second. All told, it was super tasty little brew, and, as a Saskatoon berry virgin, I was grateful for the opportunity to try it.

Rating: 8.0 out of 10.
