Description

Crimson by Fonta Flora is an enticing sour beer that brings the vibrant spirit of North Carolina into every sip. With a modest 5.2% ABV, this beer offers a refreshing yet complex drinking experience that is perfect for those who appreciate the art of fermentation. As a sour beer, Crimson eschews bitterness for a bright, tangy profile, evidenced by its zero IBU rating, making it a delightful choice for those who enjoy tart and fruity notes. Sour beers like Crimson are known for their lively acidity and unique flavor combinations, often incorporating locally-sourced ingredients to enhance their character. Although specific tasting notes for Crimson aren't explicitly detailed, one can anticipate a mouth-puckering yet balanced experience typical of this style, with an emphasis on fresh, rustic flavors that are both invigorating and subtly nuanced. To truly appreciate Crimson, serving it at a slightly chilled temperature between 45-50°F is recommended, allowing its flavors to fully blossom. A tulip glass will enhance the beer's aromatic profile, capturing its essence and concentrating it towards your senses for an enriched tasting experience. Pair this sour delight with dishes that can match its vibrancy, such as a goat cheese salad, where the creamy texture and tang of the cheese complement the beer's acidity, or with grilled white fish, where the lightness of the dish aligns beautifully with Crimson's crisp character. Whether exploring new culinary combinations or unwinding with a glass of this North Carolina treasure, Crimson promises a genuine taste of Fonta Flora's dedication to craft and locality.

    drank it straight from the can at the lake and it totally worked

  • Kelly W. ★★★★☆

    First warm weekend this year, absolutely hit the spot outside by the firepit.

    That's one of our favorite spring beers too. Should pair well with your next cookout.

  • Lisa H. ★★★★☆

    sour but not too puckering, really clean taste

    Response from CBC Liquors, Westford

    Glad you liked the balance on Crimson. If you're ever in the mood for something a bit funkier, ask us about our wild ales next time.

  • Bob E. ★★★★★

    never had a sour this fresh. Bright and tart, easy to drink. Polished off two with pulled pork tacos.
