Edge Brewing

Edge Brewing’s Sangría Sour is a vibrant Wild Specialty Beer that bridges the gap between craft ale and Spanish viticulture. An intricate double fermentation process utilizing a unique house souring strain yields a complex, tart profile. Intense aromas of ripe tropical fruits and mixed berries dominate the nose, accented by a curious hint of liquorice. The palate is defined by a luscious, juicy fruit character and a bright lactic acidity that leads to a crisp, dry, and lasting finish. This ruby-hued ale captures the essence of a summer sangría, offering a refreshing and sophisticated sensory experience with a refined, wild edge.

Appearance. Deep ruby to garnet with a soft violet tint; clarity is slightly hazy due to significant fruit additions. Pours with a thin, pink-tinted head that dissipates relatively quickly, leaving minimal lacing.

Aroma. High aromatic intensity featuring a complex mélange of jammy berries and ripe tropical notes. A clean lactic sourness provides a sharp backdrop, complemented by a distinct, earthy liquorice note and subtle funky esters from the house strain.

Taste. The initial impression is punchy and tart with a well-defined lactic acidity. Dominant flavors of fermented berries and tropical fruit mimic a sangría profile, while a subtle liquorice spice adds depth. Bitterness is virtually absent, allowing the fruit tannins and acidity to drive the dry, clean, and juicy finish.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a prickly, high carbonation that enhances the perceived tartness. A very slight tannic astringency from the fruit skins provides structure without harshness. Alcohol warmth is well-hidden and subtle.
