CROOKED RUN FERMENTATION
Sterling, Virginia
Close your eyes for a minute, and clear your mind temporarily. Take yourself back to when you were a kid playing outside with your friends on a hot summer day. You have sweat rolling down your forehead, and it’s just so humid that water isn’t going to cut it to cool you off. Faintly in the distance you hear the unmistakable sound that every kid loves to hear. Sure enough, coming down the street, you catch the first glimpse of a faded pink and yellow van with a huge ice cream cone attached to the roof. Ice cream, that will do the trick!
Fast forward several years to your legal drinking age. Wouldn’t it be nice to experience that kind of childhood nostalgia again? To go back and experience that sensation of how that ice cream tasted to you at after opening the wrapper on that hot summer day.
Crooked Run Fermentation has two Seltzer lines—Tropic and Swirl. Their Tropic line contains all real fruit and ingredients, which we will get into one of those in a future article. Swirl is the other line of Seltzers, and they get a little crazy with it. Jake Endres, co-owner of Crooked Run said this about Swirl when we reached out to him, “They’re thick, sweet and not exactly low calorie—not at all like a regular hard seltzer. Do they tasted like beer? Nope, but they’re a nice way to mix it up and they are also gluten free”
