RaR - Out of Order: I am the Night Smoothie Sour 16oz
RaR Brewing's at it again with another wild entry in their "Out of Order" series! Let's unpack this flavor-packed smoothie sour called "I am the Night."
First off, we're dealing with a 6% ABV smoothie sour here. That's a nice middle ground - enough punch to keep things interesting, but not so much that you'll be swinging from the rafters after one can.
Now, let's talk about what makes this brew unique. It's a lactose-based sour, which means you're getting that creamy, smooth mouthfeel along with a tart kick. But hold onto your taste buds, because that's just the beginning!
They've gone and conditioned this bad boy on bananas. Yep, you heard that right - bananas in your beer! This is going to bring a sweet, tropical fruitiness to the party. I'm thinking it'll add a nice mellow sweetness to balance out the sour base.
But wait, there's more! They've also thrown pound cake into the mix. Pound cake! In a beer! This is probably going to add a rich, buttery, slightly sweet flavor that'll make you feel like you're drinking some kind of boozy dessert.
And just when you thought it couldn't get any more decadent, they've added vanilla icing to the equation. This is likely going to amp up the sweetness and add a smooth, creamy vanilla note that'll tie everything together.
The name "I am the Night" is pretty intriguing too. Maybe it's a nod to how this beer might be perfect for those late-night sweet cravings? Or perhaps it's just so rich and indulgent it feels a bit naughty?
All in all, what we've got here is a beer that's pushing the boundaries of what beer can be. It's sour, it's sweet, it's creamy, it's fruity - it's like a liquid dessert in a can!
So, what do you think? Ready to take your taste buds on a wild ride with this banana-pound-cake-vanilla-icing sour concoction? It's definitely not your average brew, but for adventurous beer lovers, this could be a real treat!

What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
