It’s part of the brewery's \"playlist\" of bold, colorful beers that prioritize high-impact fruit additions and a playful, approachable acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeer Description\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJam Rock pours a stunning, vibrant deep purple-to-magenta with a fizzy, pink-tinted head that settles quickly, characteristic of high-fruit-content sours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e The nose is an absolute explosion of fresh blackberries. It smells remarkably like a jar of high-end jam or a berry-filled pastry. You’ll find secondary notes of lemon zest and a subtle, creamy sweetness that suggests vanilla or marshmallow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e On the tongue, it is medium-bodied with a \"jammy,\" slightly viscous texture. It leads with a massive burst of sweet-and-tart blackberry juice. The acidity is present but \"soft\" it’s a mouth-watering tartness rather than a sharp, puckering sourness. The finish is clean and fruity, with a lingering berry-skin dryness that keeps it from being cloying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfile:\u003c\/strong\u003e It typically sits around 5.2% ABV with near-zero bitterness, as the focus is entirely on the interplay between the fruit and the lactic acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a Kettle Sour, meaning the wort is soured with \u003cem\u003eLactobacillus\u003c\/em\u003e in the brewhouse before being boiled and fermented. Eighty-Eight adds a massive amount of blackberry purée during fermentation to ensure the color and flavor remain as \"true-to-fruit\" as possible. Some iterations also include a touch of lactose (milk sugar) to provide that signature \"Jam Rock\" creamy mouthfeel and to balance the natural tartness of the berries.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"301133 - The Establishment Brewing Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42603585437783,"sku":"853597","price":112.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2479\/4148\/files\/Establishment-Jam-Rock-Blackberry-Sour-473-ml.jpg?v=1773342517","url":"https:\/\/zyn.ca\/products\/establishment-jam-rock-blackberry-sour-473-ml-24-cans","provider":"ZYN THE WINE MARKET LTD.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
