Paradise Lost NA Strawberry Pineapple

I have been skeptical of non-alcoholic sours before, and mostly for good reason. Paradise Lost's strawberry pineapple batch is not the exception that changes my mind about the category. It is just a genuinely good glass of beer.

I have been skeptical of non-alcoholic sours before, and mostly for good reason. A lot of them taste like the alcohol was the thing holding the fruit together.

This one does not have that problem. It's the latest recipe in Blood Brothers' Paradise Lost NA line, built around ripe strawberry and lush pineapple, landing bright and sour with a clean, mouth-watering tartness and just enough acidity to keep it interesting through the glass. All of it at 0.5% ABV, which is easy to forget while you're drinking it.

Part of this week's new releases out of the Toronto brewery, alongside a couple of returning hazy IPAs. The NA one is the one worth the detour.
