Production & Heritage

Drekker Brewing Company operates out of its brewery at 1666 1st Avenue North in Fargo, North Dakota. The brewery earned recognition at the 2020 U.S. Beer Open and has built a devoted following around its experimental fruited sour and hazy IPA programs. The PRRRT Series exemplifies Drekker's approach to smoothie-style sours: each release is loaded with a specific combination of fruit purées — commonly blueberry, raspberry, tart cherry, pineapple, and lime — designed to replicate familiar flavors like the classic rocket pop. The result is a thick, opaque pour with a texture closer to a fruit smoothie than a conventional sour ale.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Fresh mixed berries dominate immediately, followed by bright pineapple and a subtle citrus lift from lime. Underneath, tart cherry adds a deeper, slightly jammy quality that rounds out the nose.

Taste: The entry is sweet and fruit-forward, with blueberry and raspberry hitting first. Mid-palate, pineapple and lime emerge to provide a tangy, tropical counterpoint before tart cherry drives a balanced sourness through the finish. Sweetness and tartness stay in equilibrium, never tipping too far in either direction.

Finish: Medium in length with a pleasantly tart, slightly puckering close. Residual berry sweetness and a faint lime zest linger, leaving the palate clean and ready for the next sip.

How to Drink PRRRT Series

Pour cold into a tulip glass or wide-mouth pint to appreciate the thick, vividly colored body and aromatic fruit character. The PRRRT Series is best enjoyed fresh and on its own — these heavily fruited sours are designed to drink like a standalone experience rather than a cocktail ingredient. For a refreshing warm-weather serve, drink it straight from the can at near-freezing temperature to lean into the slushy-pop inspiration behind the recipe.

How does PRRRT compare to Drekker Braaaaaaaains? Both are thick, fruited smoothie-style sours from Drekker, but the Braaaaaaaains series tends to focus on different fruit combinations and often skews toward tropical or single-fruit profiles.

Why PRRRT Series?

The PRRRT Series represents Drekker Brewing at its most inventive — each release reworks a familiar, nostalgia-driven flavor concept through the lens of a well-executed smoothie sour. The sheer density of fruit purée in every can sets it apart from thinner, more conventional fruited sours on the market. Drekker's track record, including recognition at the 2020 U.S. Beer Open, lends credibility to a brewery that could otherwise be dismissed as hype-driven. For drinkers who want a sour ale that genuinely tastes like biting into a rocket pop, the PRRRT Series delivers that promise with technical skill and serious drinkability.
