Socks Off Sour

A sour variation of our Earl Pear Blonde Ale. The beer was 100% fermented with 3 different strains of Brettanomyces in French Oak chardonnay barrels for 6 months. As per original version, the beer was infused with a French Earl Grey tea blend and fresh pear. The result is a complex, unique sour ale, with lots of funkiness and minimal tartness. Funk from the Brett combine with the floral/fruity elements of the tea to create the aroma. A smooth wild pear taste takes over the palate, finishing very dry with notes from the chardonnay barrels.
