CODA SIGNATURE

TANNINS ALVARADO STREET BUBBLES PINEAPPLE GINGER SELTZER 5% ABV>> Alvarado Street Brewing has been blowing up California’s craft beer scene over the last year, cranking out god-tier IPAs and consistently delicious kettle sours, earning them a reputation as one of the state’s hottest up-andcomers. The aesthetically pleasing labels and equally pleasing liquid inside each can and bottle has powered a demand that has prompted them to distribute their beers outside of the state. Despite their success in the beer game, their first craft seltzer offering was a massive failure: a birthday cake flavored hard seltzer that tasted super arti- ficial and plastic-y. Luckily, this Pineapple Ginger Hard Seltzer does a lot to redeem them and instill more confidence in their seltzer game moving forward. This easy drinking offering is crisp and clean with an enjoyable pineapple flavor. The ginger takes a backseat and, within the context of this beverage, exists in a supporting role.

TERPENES CODA SIGNATURE PEAR GINGER FRUIT NOTES 100MG THC/PACK >> Coda Signature offers a unique line of products with gourmet, chef-devel- oped flavor profiles you won’t find anywhere else - lychee and cucumber, pineapple and jalapeño, cherry and sarsaparilla, and this deliciously different pear and ginger. Their Fruit Notes line is crafted from real fruit, all natural ingredients and is gluten-free and vegan. Each bite contains just 5mg THC, so you can indulge in a few pieces before worrying about overdoing it. The jellies are a delightful consistency, soft and chewy without sticking to your mouth. Each bite is bursting with big pear flavor that slowly gives way to an alluring and provocative ginger spiciness. After three jellies and about 20 minutes, I felt a slight buzz begin to develop in my body. By 30 minutes, the full effects were realized and a weightless and mellowing high had settled in.

THE PAIRING When brought together, these flavor profiles and textures really shine. The Pear & Ginger Fruit Notes provide an enjoyable chewiness packed with flavor and backed by a touch of sweetness and a tiny crunch from the green tea matcha sugar that coats each bite. When followed up and washed down with the Pineapple Ginger Hard Seltzer, suddenly a delicious apple profile materializes that didn’t exist within each offering individually. With a conservative 5% ABV in the seltzer and each morsel of fruit jelly containing just 5mg THC, the pairing delivers modest effects and brings forth a light and bubbly, fun and silly energy. This functional and fun combo is a great option to pair with a low effort hike, a romp in the sheets with your partner, or a mellow weekend bike ride.
