ROSALBA
Barrel Aged Mixed Fermentation Sour with Raspberry
Colour: Ruby Red
ABV: 7%
Suggested Glassware: Teku or Wine Glass
Tasting Notes: Rosalba is named after the daughter of 2 of the owners, who in turn, was named after her nonna. A blend of mixed fermentation beers aged in red and white wine as well as Bourbon barrels and refermented on hundreds of pounds of ripe raspberries from the Fraser Valley. The result is a complex, fruity, sour beer that pours a bright red with a soft white head. Bursting aromas of ripe red berries with notes of vanilla and coconut from the wood. Complex flavors of citrus and raspberries with a subtle Brett funk lead to a jammy sweetness balanced by bright acidity.

Story Behind the Name: Passeggiata is a common tradition in Italy where folks take a stroll around town in the evening, just after dinnertime. We chose this name because this beer’s colour profile reminds us of the shifting shades of dusk in the evening and the brightness of the carbonation is like feeling that brisk wind against your cheeks. Its the perfect companion beer for a walk around your neighbourhood with your famiglia!
