WeldWerks Brewing 'Last Scoop: Neapolitan' Sour Ale Beer, Colorado

Ripe strawberry, creamy vanilla, and chocolate come together in a playful sweet-tart profile inspired by the three familiar flavors of Neapolitan ice cream. WeldWerks Brewing's 'Last Scoop: Neapolitan' Sour Ale Beer combines strawberry, vanilla, chocolate, and milk sugar in a 4.1% ABV sour ale, balancing fruit-driven acidity with dessert-like richness and a softer, creamy impression. It reflects WeldWerks’ longstanding willingness to move beyond traditional style boundaries and build expressive beers around distinctive flavor combinations.

Product Details:

• Owners: Neil Fisher and Colin Jones
• Brewer: Neil Fisher
• ABV: 4.1%
• Adjuncts: Strawberry, vanilla, chocolate, and milk sugar

Sensory Description:

Strawberry leads with bright red-fruit character, framed by the contrasting richness of chocolate and the softer aromatic sweetness of vanilla. Tartness gives the beer definition and keeps its dessert-inspired profile lively, while milk sugar contributes a rounded, creamy impression that recalls melted ice cream without losing the refreshing character of a sour ale. Chocolate settles into the background as the palate develops, leaving strawberry, vanilla, cocoa, and tangy fruit in a smooth, confectionery finish.

Brewer's Background:

WeldWerks Brewing Co. was founded by Neil Fisher and Colin Jones and opened in Greeley, Colorado, in 2015 after a shared homebrewing background developed into plans for a commercial brewery. Fisher brought a technically focused approach to brewing, while the brewery quickly established an identity around experimentation and a broad rotation of styles rather than a narrowly defined portfolio. WeldWerks became particularly associated with hop-forward beers such as Juicy Bits, alongside barrel-aged stouts, sours, and heavily adjuncted specialty releases. Last Scoop: Neapolitan sits firmly within that experimental side of the brewery, translating a recognizable dessert combination into a lower-alcohol sour format built around fruit, acidity, chocolate, vanilla, and creamy sweetness.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve chilled at 6 to 8°C in a stemmed tulip or sour beer glass to highlight its strawberry aromatics while allowing the chocolate and vanilla notes to develop. Pair with cheesecake, chocolate-covered strawberries, vanilla ice cream, brownies, or fresh berries, or use its combination of sweetness and acidity as a contrast to salty snacks and rich, creamy cheeses.
