A Note on This Beer
Ever had a Golden Raspberry? Well today, you can get a taste of them with Golden Raspberry Wild Ale from Washington’s E9!
They’re a sweeter, more subtle version of the red raspberries we know and love!
When combined with the brewery’s own mixed yeast culture and then fermented for months in oak barrels, these bright berries add a balanced sweet and tart fruitiness that simply has to be tasted.
That kind of inventive brewing earned E9 Gold and Silver in the Mixed Culture category at the 2019 Washington Beer Awards!
But, if you tell your buds you have a Golden Raspberry Wild Ale from E9, they probably won’t have a clue what you’re talking about. Not only will they not know what a golden raspberry is, but E9’s brews so rarely leave the Northwest, they’ve probably never even tried Tacoma’s oldest craft brewery.
Pop the top on this tart brew and bright, berry aromas cascade from the pour to tantalize the senses. Take a sip, and it coats the taste buds like a dollop of homemade jam, balanced by puckering acidity hints of bold, grassy funk.
If this is the first time you’ve heard of E9, Goldenberry Wild Ale is one heck of an introduction to their tart talents. But, if you want a sip, you’ll have to act fast — we have just 18 cases of this brew to share!
