Meliora Sour Ale

“Meliora” in Latin translates to “better” or “best”. We modeled this beer after a traditional Flanders style red ale with a few procedural changes. In short we soured this beer with lactobacillus bacteria derived from yogurt in the brew kettle for 24 hours, otherwise known as “kettle souring”. We then boil the wort to kill the bacteria. The beer is fermented with a clean ale yeast and then aged on toasted oak to give it another dimension of character. In short, an American style red sour ale aged on oak. Show Less
