Nomade Brewery Jump is a vibrant and sessionable Straight Sour Beer that marries a sharp lactic acidity with modern hop and yeast characters. Fermented with Voss Kveik, it displays a characteristic citrusy ester profile that complements a clean, crackery malt base. The addition of Huell Melon hops introduces distinct sensory cues of honeydew melon and ripe strawberry, lifting the aroma above the base style's typical lemony tartness. Despite its low alcohol content, the beer maintains a crisp, refreshing presence with a bone-dry finish, delivering a complex sensory interplay between tangy sourness and delicate, fruit-forward hop saturation.
