Big Black Violet

Story text:

Many years ago, we took inspiration from candy and brewed a one-off, 3,5% vol. beer called Black Apple. A black sour beer! An apple and licorice sour beer.

It did not take long for that beer to become one of our most requested beers to bring back. So a few years later, we did another one-off, a bigger one. The new version was a 6% vol. Bigger, blacker, and applier. A beer placed somewhere between fantasy and reality. It still had all the properties of the original beer, just more of them.

Since then, Big Black Apple has become a grail for many. So when it was time to bring back the apple beer, we thought it only appropriate to let it come back with a friend. We’ve been sampling even more candy and found a violet/licorice combo that did our head in. Expect the unexpected. Illusion!
