RALEIGH – Big Boss Brewing to release new sour pineapple ale this Thursday June 27th.  The beer is available in kegs to customers all over North Carolina and a limited number of 100 bottles will be available at the taproom at a first come first serve basis.

“This Flanders style red ale spent over a year in our foedre before being blended with a younger batch to balance and round out the character. A mix of pineapple juice and purée is added at the very end of aging to bring a complex but robust tropical flavor to finish it off. ” said Big Boss cellarman John Pyburn who supervised the project.

The beer is called F2 Pineapple and is released as part of the “Strange Cargo“ series of oak aged ales.
