Dragon Tusk Seltzer: Harnessing the Power of the Chinese Dragon in Craft Brewing



In Chinese culture, the dragon symbolizes power, resilience, and an unyielding pursuit of progress. It embodies the spirit of a people who constantly adapt and evolve with the times. As we usher in the Year of the Dragon, it's fitting to draw inspiration from these remarkable qualities and infuse them into our craft beers. Fruit Purees Miami, a distributor of premium aseptic fruit purees for the craft beer industry, exemplifies this ethos, making them the perfect partner for a unique collaboration with Ryan Carruth and the team at Riptide Brewing Co. in Bonita Springs, FL. Together, they've crafted a remarkable Seltzer named "Dragon Tusk," a brew that pays tribute to the power and resilience of a dragon.


The Dragon's Essence in Craft Brewing:
The Chinese dragon's symbolism transcends borders, and its embodiment of power and adaptability finds a natural resonance in the world of craft brewing. Like the dragon, craft brewers are known for their relentless pursuit of perfection, constantly refining their techniques and recipes to create exceptional beverages. With Dragon Tusk, Fruit Purees Miami and Riptide Brewing Co. have harnessed this essence, creating a Seltzer that encapsulates the indomitable spirit of the dragon.

The Collaboration: Fruit Purees Miami and Riptide Brewing Co.
Fruit Purees Miami has earned a reputation for delivering premium aseptic fruit purees to the craft beer industry. Their commitment to quality and innovation mirrors the spirit of the dragon, pushing boundaries to provide brewers with top-notch ingredients. In their latest venture, Fruit Purees Miami has partnered with Riptide Brewing Co., a renowned brewery based in Bonita Springs, FL, to bring forth a creation that exemplifies the dragon's vitality.


Dragon Tusk: A Tribute to Power and Resilience
Dragon Tusk is a testament to the unyielding pursuit of progress that both Fruit Purees Miami and Riptide Brewing Co. share.
