This vibrant Straight Sour Beer captures the essence of Italian limoncello, bursting with the aroma of fresh lemon zest and cold-pressed juice. An assertive lactic acidity is masterfully countered by the non-fermentable sweetness of xylitol, creating a lush, liqueur-like mouthfeel that belies its 6.3% ABV. Beneath the intense citrus profile lies a clean, crackery malt base that provides structure without competing for attention. The experience is unapologetically bold—sweet, sharp, and intensely fruity—delivering a bright, refreshing finish reminiscent of a chilled lemon digestive, while maintaining the crisp, effervescent charm of a modern sour ale.
Appearance.Very pale straw (SRM 2-3). Clear to slight haze due to the heavy inclusion of lemon juice. Dense white head with poor to moderate retention, typical of highly acidic beers.
Aroma.High intensity. Sharp, clean lactic sourness is dominant, intertwined with a massive bouquet of fresh lemon zest and citrus oils. Subdued background notes of bready, crackery malt. No hop aroma or fermentation byproducts.
Taste.Initial impression is a sharp punch of lactic tartness followed by a distinct, liqueur-like sweetness from the xylitol. Deep, authentic lemon juice flavor permeates the palate, supported by a grainy, biscuity malt backbone. Hop bitterness is undetectable. The finish is uniquely sweet-tart and lingering, effectively balancing the aggressive acidity with a smooth, sweet coating.
Mouthfeel.Medium body, possessing more weight and silkiness than a standard sour due to the xylitol. Moderate to high carbonation. A light, pleasant alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated into the citrus profile.
