Angry Chair Dodo Birds

Angry Chair Dodo Birds is a Berliner Weissbier brewed with pineapple and hibiscus, 4.9% ABV. Big thanks to my friend Jim M. for sending this growler my way with his lovely wife when she passed through town. The growler was filled on 6/28/16, opened on 7/01/16.

Pours with a bright but clear pink color which is clearly coming from the hibiscus. The aroma has a general tartness as well as some lightly floral and tropical fruity notes. I am getting a good bit of the pineapple in the taste and a strong tea like flavor as well. Maybe a touch more sour than tart for the style, but this is a nice mildly mouth puckering beer.

I am enjoying this quite a bit, but I feel like there is something missing… or maybe there is a touch too much of something else? Still, I’d grab a pour if you see it down in Florida, this is some pretty good stuff.
