Dan pops Atomic Swerve, a Dry-Hopped Farmhouse Style Pale Ale from Threes Brewing, during an earlier tasting session.

Threes Brewing Atomic Swerve

STYLE: Dry-Hopped Farmhouse Style Pale AleINGREDIENTS: 2-Row malt and Red Fife NYS Wheat with Nelson Sauvin hopsABV: 5.8%IBU: 40AVAILABILITY: 12oz Cans, Draft (Limited)Stats above taken from the brewery’s can and website.

Appearance

Dark yellow/light orange in color and fairly hazy, with a fluffy, white head.

Aroma

Funk hits first, with tropical notes of overripe pineapple and guava paste.

Taste

Fruity hop notes lead into earthy/funky notes and overripe kiwi.

Mouthfeel

Dries the tongue, but has a good body and mouthfeel with a pleasant carbonation.

Overall

Pairing-wise, I think this could go with lighter fowl/poultry dishes, though I was thinking of a dish with chicken, sundried tomato, and mushrooms…so rustic?

Cheers and remember:

Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry.
