A partial synonym for "savor" is "focus," isn't it?

I recently finished reading Dan Saladino's Eating to Extinction-- very enjoyable. Oh of its stories was about kvass and the celebration of sourness. Then yesterday Sheeyun came home early from work and we went to a local brewery, where we tried a Fruity Jawn:

Fruity Jawn: Blackberry & Raspberry
Style: Blackberry & Raspberry
ABV: 5.6
IBU: 10
Style: Sour ale brewed with Blackberries and Raspberries Grain: Pale Malt, Wheat, Oats Hops: Huell Melon This jawn was brewed with over 500lbs of fresh blackberries and raspberries creating an intense berry explosion of flavor. Notes of fruit punch Kool-aid, melted red otter pops, and a refreshing tartness.

I was so glad that I'd been reading the Saladino-- I felt that I could appreciate the very non-USian flavour of the Fruity Jawn as a kvass, and we liked it very much, though we had to leave it to go pick Chun Woo up from school.
