The Sour Dry Hop is the perfect balance of Old and New World brewing. Inspired by the traditional Berliner Weisse, a sour beer once brewed in Berlin and known as the 'Champagne of the North'. Ours is soured by Lactobacillus and dry-hopped with Citra. An unusual style that delivers a tart, citrusy fruitiness.

Keg at the brewery. Very hazy yellow - gold beer, thinh white head. Palate is light, semi dry and crisp. Lactic sourness. Mild lemon and a trace of orange peel. Light dry finish brings more lactic sourness.
