Largo Brewery a Haven for Sour Fans

March 4-12 was Tampa Bay Beer Week, so as a beer enthusiast and lifelong Tampa Bay resident, I considered it my societal duty to imbibe.

I discovered some Beer Week gems at the newish Largo brewery Arkane Ale Works during its “Super Tart Tuesday” event, which featured 15 sours of varying styles. The Gypsy Tears (pomegranate ginger Florida Weisse) and Gimme Swelter (mango habanero Berliner Weisse) were dangerously drinkable and satisfyingly sour — without masking the biting ginger or tangy mango flavors.

If you missed Beer Week, don’t fret — Arkane should still have some great pucker-worthy brews on tap.
