funky potion

In fairy tales, magic potions are miraculous liquids brewed from unusual ingredients and through complex processes. In reality, it's quite similar: Beer, thanks to its mood-enhancing, happiness-inducing effects, is undoubtedly a magic potion – and its production usually takes more than a month. Unusual ingredients aren't always listed on the label, but these days they're no longer uncommon.

Cierzo Brewing from Spain has concocted a magic potion par excellence: Funky Potion was created in a time-consuming process and then aged for a full year in wooden barrels. In addition to the usual suspects – hops, malt, water, and yeast – the brew contains some very special ingredients: 100 kilograms each of plums and blueberries give this magical sour beer its berry-red color and the perfect balance of summery sweetness and fruity acidity.

Funky Potion flows into the glass in burgundy red, shimmering purple when caught in the light. Pink foam crowns the beer and releases a wonderful aroma of ripe, red stone fruit and spicy yeast. The first sip reveals a sparkling beer experience that brings juicy fruitiness, voluminous plum and blueberry notes, crisp acidity, vanilla, oak, and funky yeast to the tongue. The right choice for those who need a pinch of magic in their everyday life!
