What Makes Sour Beer Unique?

Sour beer stands out for its distinctive tartness, achieved through wild fermentation or the deliberate introduction of lactic acid bacteria and yeast strains like Brettanomyces. Unlike traditional beer styles, sour beers embrace a natural, less controlled brewing process, resulting in complex, unpredictable flavours. The result? A refreshing, tangy experience that appeals to beer lovers and newcomers alike.

The Origins of Sour Beer

With roots tracing back to pre-industrial Europe, sour beer is among the oldest beer styles in history.

Today, craft brewers worldwide continue to innovate, blending traditional methods with modern creativity to produce an array of sour beer varieties.
