The wild frontier of craft beer. Tart, complex, and endlessly fascinating — these beers push flavor boundaries with every sip.
Before modern sanitation, all beer was sour to some degree. Belgian Lambics, spontaneously fermented by wild yeasts in the Brussels air, represent one of the oldest continuous brewing traditions in the world, dating back to the 13th century.
German styles like Gose (salty and tart, from Leipzig) and Berliner Weisse (Napoleon's "Champagne of the North") have been revived by American craft brewers, who add everything from passion fruit to jalapeños.
Typical ABV: 3% – 8% | IBU: 5 – 25 | Color: Pale Gold to Deep Ruby
Fresh goat cheese, ceviche, fruit salads, sushi, dark chocolate, charcuterie boards.
From gentle Berliner Weisse to funky barrel-aged wild ales — embrace the pucker.
