The next fruited sour from Yellowbelly showcases the magnificent Wexford delicacy, strawberries. Our house Berliner Weisse malt bill was mashed as usual, kettle soured with lactobacillus, fermented and conditioned on an absolute hape of strawberry (7kg per hl for those inclined). The resulting beer sees the usually associated mouth puckering acidity balanced out by the fruits sweetness. Lashings of fruit on the nose, on the tongue and on the finish.

Can at the Old Dears, from Callans, 09/07/17. Orange with a pinkish glint topped with an off white to faded crimson cap. Nose is lemon jelly, tangy strawberry, fruit punch, damp straw. Taste comprises a lactic tang, decaying strawberries, rhubarb sours, grains, light funk. Another decent and refreshing fruit sour from Yellowbelly but doesn’t quite come up to the level of the Passionfruit number for me.

330ml bottle, from trade with beershesknown. Many thanks Steve. Pours a misty gold, thin foamy white head. Aroma has faint fresh strawberry and light funk. Taste is crisp with a light tang. Just enough strawberry here with additional sweet shop berry shading. Lovely refreshing sour.
