Sour

Sour beer is a type of beer that is known for its tart, acidic, and sometimes fruity flavor profile. This beer style is created by intentionally introducing wild yeast or bacteria during brewing. Fermenting the beer this way gives it its unique flavor. The sourness in these beers can come from various sources, such as lactobacillus, pediococcus, or Brettanomyces. Sour beers can be categorized into styles, including the Berliner Weisse, Gose, Lambic, and Flanders Red Ale. All these styles vary in sourness intensity, added fruits, and other ingredients. In addition, these beers can be dry or sweet and are often lower in alcohol, around 4-7% alcohol by volume (ABV). Overall, Sour beers are known for their tart, acidic and complex character, making them popular among craft beer enthusiasts.
