Chickadee is a sour beer brewed for Spring and Summer days but enjoyable all year-round. It’s light, tart, and low in alcohol. Using 2-row barley, white wheat, and munich malts, Chickadee has a pillowy softness from a generous helping of flaked oats. It’s soured with Lactobacillus and fermented with a clean American ale yeast. Post-Fermentation it’s lightly dry-hopped with Cascade, Motueka, or other hop styles that exhibit tropical fruit flavors and aromas.

Can from Chris M: pours hazy yellowish with whitish head. Aroma is slightly citric lacto funk. Sourish. Not too acidic. Light fruity notes. Easy drinking. Pleasant enough.

16 oz can purchased at the brewery in Mission, Kansas to go. The pour is a clear golden with a foamy 1/2 inch white head. The aroma is wheat grain, tart sour, a bit of metallic, though that clears. The taste is lactic tart sour, clean wheat grain and residual funk to the finish. There is also a hint of diacetyl in the back. Similar to the metallic aroma this dissipated as the beer warmed The palate is light bodied, spritzy active carbonation and the funk finish.

Can from the brewery. Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates nearly completely. Aroma has tart light fruits, some apple and a sweet wheat backbone. Flavor is similar with light lemon, light tart fruit, a touch of apple and sweet wheat underlying.
