Missed the alert for Trap Door Untitled #5? Here’s another shot at it before it sells out!

Today’s beer is such a masterful dance of tangy, sweet, and juicy elegance, it needs no name.

To craft it, the Washington microbrewers at Trap Door started by carefully selecting a white wine barrel-aged Sour Ale blend from their cellar — a beer already brimming with puckering complexity and whispers of oak. 

They took the tangy sipper to new heights by refermenting it on Willamette Valley-grown Meeker raspberries. If you’re unfamiliar with the sheer juicy-tart delight these berries offer, gardening experts often describe them as one scrumptious dessert of a fruit, either by themselves or in 5-star restaurant recipes. (Meeker raspberry-topped cheesecake, anyone?)

While the exquisite taste of these raspberries in this beer would be alluring enough, the brewers didn’t stop there. They conditioned the vivid brew on Tahitian vanilla beans to smooth out the pointed bite and keep their creation luxuriously sippable!

Since having no name for this beautiful Sour would complicate things, the brewers decided to call it “Untitled #5.” Get a taste, you’ll realize that’s only because a more precise name, like Dessert-Cherry-Meets-White-Wine Oaky Sour Elegance just wouldn’t fit on the label.

*Heads up, the label says “canned October 2020” but this is a typo. It was canned in December!
