Our Steamworks Kettle Sour starts with a Clean malt bill of premium 2-row, carapils and wheat malt which is then kettle soured and generously dry hopped with Mosaic and Nelson Sauvin post fermentation to give a tropical fruit aroma and a refreshingly tart avour.

650 ml bottle. Pours amber with light head. Aromas of passionfruit, guava, and gooseberries with a bit of rubber. Flavors of flat dry rubbery muddled tropical fruit. Great nose but expecting more in the the flavor. OK

Bottle from the brewery
Blond color, slightly hazy. Lovely aroma, hoppy, tropical, pungent; a lot of mandarin. Dry mouthfeel, moderately sour, with decent hop level and quality; a bit thin in the final.
Very good.

Bottle - Nice tart lemon and wet grassy notes. Clearish gold with a decent white head. Lots of fleshy citrus, mainly tart orange with a nice finish. Surprisingly good.

750ml bottle at Matt’s. Pours a pale, slightly hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma is hoppy, with some mango and... exhaust notes. Taste is sour, fermented fruits. Meh... 7-3-6-2-12=3
On tap at the taproom in Burnaby. Feels more palate and almost no exaust notes. 7-3-6-3-13=3.3

650mL bottle, pours a cloudy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of tropical fruitiness and white wine-like dry hopping upfront, with a lovely tartness. Flavour screams tropical fruits, with lots of mangoes and pineapples, lovely fruity and somewhat vinous dry hopping, and medium tartness. One of the best local kettle sours out there. Very fruity, nicely hoppy and appropriately sour. Impressive.

Bottle, LDB Cambie & 7th. Kind of a dull hazy tan with a thin head. Not the most attractive beer. But it smells good - massive sauvin aroma on this one, floral, vinous, just explodes out of the glass. Has medium bitterness and light sourness. A fair bit of biscuity malt, and a lot of honeyish, floral Sauvin hop. Good balance between the elements here - it comes across like a Kiwi Pale with kettle sour finish.
