Sometimes i feel like i'm the only one, but i love a good sour beer every now and then. Austin's Jester King Brewery often seem to be the master purveyors of that kind of thing. While visiting the brewery a couple of weeks ago, i tried their Ol' Oi Barrel-Aged Sour Brown Ale...and loved it. The brew comes in at 6.3% ABV, and uses a variety of wild yeasts and souring bacteria to give it its kick. It pours a lovely brown with a light tan head and smells of wheat and spices. To me, you can practically smell the sour on it. Aside from the prevailing strong sour notes of the beer, their are also hints of bread, citrus, and some subtle malts. All in all, this is a great beer if you dig on the sour. And i do.
Visit the brewer.
