July also marks the return of Breakside Brewery to the Oregon Brewers Festival and kicks off Belmont Station's Puckerfest on July 14th.

Breakside Passionfruit Sour (July - September, 2015)
a refreshing sour ale with a kiss of tropical fruit our award-winning sour ale returns as our official summer seasonal. Passionfruit Sour is brewed in the tradition of a classic German Berliner weisse, and then we add a unique, tropical twist. We use lactic acid-producing bacteria to produce a beer that is light in body, extremely refreshing, and mouth puckeringly tart. The addition of passionfruit in our lagering tanks gives this beer an inviting stonefruit aroma.
5% ABV. 3 IBU. Malts: Two Row, German Wheat, Light Crystal. Hops: Hersbrucker. Special Ingredients: Passionfruit. Available in 22oz bottles and on draft next week.
