Straight from Phillip Island, Ocean Reach Brewing ditches the usual tropical fruit playbook for something a little darker and moodier. Loaded with ripe blackberries and tart blood plums, this fruited sour pours a striking, deep ruby-purple with a quick, pink-tinted foam. Jammy bramble berries and sharp plum skin jump out on the aroma before a bright, mouth-watering wave of lactic acidity takes over the palate. Rather than leaning sweet or syrupy, the fruit brings rich, almost wine-like depth that cuts straight into a crisp, bone-dry finish. Clocking in at a generous 500ml, it’s bold, puckering, and dangerously easy to put away.
