\"Pure<\/a>
Pure Project Brewing’s Delphyne is a Berliner weisse flavored with dragon fruit<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From the Beer Writer: <\/strong>After taking most of the past six months off, Beer to the Rescue <\/strong>returned to action this week (on my son’s 21st birthday, perfectly enough) with the Tuesday release of Pure Project Delphyne<\/strong>. Before even having opened their doors, the founders of Pure Project Brewing <\/strong><\/a>expressed a desire to participate in this Lupus Foundation of Southern California<\/strong><\/a> fundraising campaign, which saw more than 30 Southern California breweries contribute a portion of proceeds from specialty beers in 2015. In joining the cause, Pure Project head brewer Winslow Sawyer<\/strong> was kind enough to appease my personal tastes. His brewing MO is to select interesting ingredients\u2014usually fruits of a citrus or tropical variety\u2014then select an ideal beer-style for showcasing each. In this case, he took my requested ingredient, dragon fruit, and incorporated it into an effervescent, lightly sour Berliner weisse. The result is a blushingly magenta brew with a body well suited for summer and a generous touch of soul.<\/p>\n

From the Brewer: <\/strong>\u201cDelphyne is a bright, refreshingly tart \u2018sunshine beer\u2019 featuring lactic and sourdough-like notes on the nose. Based on a traditional German Berliner weisse, it\u2019s brewed with raw, organic dragon fruit we sourced from San Diego-based operation, Pitaya Plus<\/strong><\/a>, whose non-GMO farms are located in Nicaragua. This exotic ingredient provides both color and depth of flavor. Berliner weisses\u2014which were the most popular beverage in Germany during the late 19th century\u2014are typically fermented using a mixture of yeast and lactic bacteria, but for this charity beer, I used a vegan yogurt to sour the wort before boiling, then utilized a German ale yeast for fermentation.\u201d\u2014Winslow Sawyer, Head Brewer, Pure Project<\/em><\/p>\n
