A Note on This Beer
Wriggle into your skinny jeans and twist up your ironically waxed mustache, because here comes Hipster Blood Nordic-Style Farmhouse Ale.
And just like a real hipster, this cherry-infused brew from Separatist Beer Project jumped on the current trend way before it was cool. That trend: Norweigan Yeast.
If you haven’t tried a brew fermented with one of these unusual yeasts, Hipster Blood is a great place to start. One sip is all it takes to acquaint your tastebuds with the slightly funky, super-drinkable flavors typical of these strains.
In this beer, mild hints of hayloft funk elevate the fruity notes from 600 lbs of sweet and tart cherries. But don’t expect a fruit bomb, this beer is more Saison-like. The cherry is there, but it’s light, swirling against notes of lemon zest tartness for a super refreshing and incredibly drinkable sip.
It’ll quench the thirst of a bearded Viking after a long day of pillaging, or satisfy an equally bearded hipster after a parched afternoon spent haggling over vintage socks at the flea market.
In other words, if you’re in need of a little refreshment, this is the beer for you. No matter who you are.
