Beer Facts
Sours typically rely on either kettle souring (brewing like normal and letting everything go sour in the kettle before boiling) or pitching bacteria and hoping you can clean everything well enough to avoid making everything sour. The yeast we are using: produces the souring acid and, when the pH gets too low, shuts itself down.
The Pairings
Creamy cheeses, roast duck, citrus salmon
