Belt’s Beer Garden: Best of the Zest

Avid readers of Belt’s Beer Garden might recall that just over a year ago I featured a beer called Neon Distraction - a hazy IPA from Divine Barrel. And, while the hoppy brew was solid, I have wanted to get my hands on a different style from the Charlotte, North Carolina brewery.

Divine Barrel specializes in wood-aged wilds and sours ales and, today, I finally get to try one of those specialities - a fruited Berliner Weisse called Zest Intentions.

Zest Intentions is a sour ale made with massive amounts of grapefruit, lemon, lime, and oranges that is meant to counter the heat of the Carolina summer.
