When developing this beer, the team at Vault City Brewery had a very specific image in mind. They envisioned homemade cupcakes with rhubarb and berries, finished with a dollop of vanilla icing. Fluffy batter, crisp, tart rhubarb, deep red, sweet berries, and a crowning finale of vanilla cream – a slice of heaven on earth and the perfect inspiration for a sinfully delicious beer.
Rhubarb Drizzleberry Cupcake is a delicious pastry sour that, thanks to two types of grain, blackberries, rhubarb and lactose on the ingredient list, tastes like Grandma just pulled it fresh out of her oven.
This beer-based pastry presents itself in the glass with a deep berry red hue and is adorned with a handsome head of pink-tinged, densely pored foam. A delightful aroma of freshly baked rhubarb cake, sponge cake, and summer berries entices the first sip. The flavor profile follows suit, delivering an elegant balance of creamy sweetness, fruity acidity, and gentle bitterness. The rhubarb is unmistakable and dominant, yet blends harmoniously with the milder notes of berries, pastry, and vanilla.
For those craving a change from the usual Sunday coffee, why not replace the cake with this beer? Vault City’s Rhubarb Drizzleberry Cupcake is the perfect choice for anyone with a sweet tooth and a love of rhubarb!
