2021 Christmas Advent Beer Day 18
The most insane beer of my advent this year. I’ve followed Steel City and Lost Industry for a while but only really get to drink their beers when I’m back up north. I never thought I’d get to drink one of the Sour Wars series, so I’m hugely grateful to find this beer in my advent.
What a delight. So smooth and not a hint of alcohol at all. Sweetness from the honey, tartness from the raspberries and the most mellow sour I’ve ever had all mean this is one hell of a beer! There’s definitely a hint of a peat in the aftertaste too. Such complexities normally associated with barrel aged stouts.
The Pastore soured stout I had earlier this year was good, but this is something else… 👌
