One of our annual Barrel Project Releases.
A collaboration with our friends Gorilla Brewing in South Korea. An exploration of barrel characters, landing on the subtle notes of Soju barrels. We aged a bright, zesty sour in these unique casks, allowing the beer to pick up the smooth, delicate spirit character. A gentle, rounded minerality and leading to a complex, refreshing, and entirely new sour experience.
Made with time and love at Cloudwater.

Stingy, vinous and sourish with some tart zesty lemon, citrus and floral notes, hints of bretta. A bit untypical
