Beers similar to An Embrace

Sour Ale·United Kingdom·5.5% ABV·One of 46 Sour Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share An Embrace's berry and sour character. Vibrant acidity intertwines with deep, jammy notes of red and blackcurrant: tart, refreshing and drying, with a gentle tannic edge, complex and fruit-forward. The chuckleberry is a bright, characterful cross of redcurrant, gooseberry and jostaberry. This 5.5% wild ale is one of Cloudwater's annual Barrel Project releases.
