Battery Steele Looming Illusion Review

You’d be hard-pressed to find a juice bar with a drink as delicious, or fruity, as this. In this variant, the beer is conditioned on raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries, and is graciously dosed with a hint of Tahitian vanilla. The illusion here is that this beer is not a zesty fruit juice or cocktail, but a gose — a humble German-style wheat beer with fruit.
