Brewer's Background:

Tripping Animals Brewing Co. was founded in 2018 by Daniel Chocron, Ignacio Montenegro, Iker Elorriaga, and Juan-Manuel Torres after the group began brewing together in Caracas, Venezuela. The independent, family-owned brewery operates in South Florida and focuses on expressive, collaborative beers supported by community, art, and music initiatives. Blue Tongue Meltdown was developed with WeldWerks Brewing, a locally owned Colorado brewery founded in 2015 and known for experimentation across a wide range of beer styles.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve well chilled at 5 to 7 degrees Celsius in a stemmed sour glass, tulip, or small tumbler to emphasize its fruit aromatics and refreshing acidity. Pair with spicy tacos, grilled pork, salty snacks, fresh fruit, creamy cheeses, or vanilla ice cream. Drink fresh to retain the beer’s brightest watermelon and blue-raspberry character.
