Dugges Bryggeri

A vibrant and boundary-pushing Straight Sour Beer, Bloom presents a sophisticated fusion of sharp citrus and piquant spice. The nose is an intense bouquet of fresh lemon zest and peppery ginger, layered with the floral and herbaceous nuances of Grappa barrel aging. On the palate, a clean lactic acidity cuts through a surprising sweetness, revealing complex notes of vinous grape skin and a subtle, spiritous warmth. The high-gravity base provides a sturdier foundation than a standard sour, allowing the tangy lemon and spicy ginger to linger against a background of crackery malt and refined wood.

Appearance. Deep gold (4-6 SRM). Clarity is clear to slightly hazy. Large, white head with poor retention, typical of high-acid and high-alcohol profiles, leaving minimal lacing.

Aroma. High intensity. Dominant sharp lemon and pungent, spicy ginger. Significant Grappa influence adds floral, herbaceous, and vinous notes. No hop aroma. Pale malt character is minimal, presenting as light crackers under the bold fruit and spirit notes.

Taste. Initial impression is a sharp, tangy lemon and peppery ginger blast. Strong lactic sourness is balanced by a moderate sweetness and alcohol presence. Grappa barrel notes contribute herbal complexity and a dry, woody finish. No hop bitterness or flavor. Aftertaste is a lingering mix of spice and citrus.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with high carbonation. Noticeable alcohol warmth due to the 9.2% ABV. Sharp, crisp acidity provides a refreshing but prickly sensation on the tongue.
