hopIQ found 10 beers with the same funky and sour character as COOLSHIP CHAOS 2018. Coolship Chaos 2018 from Beachwood Brewing in Long Beach, California is a rare testament to the Southern Californian craft scene's adventurous spirit. This spontaneously fermented Belgian-style sour pours a hazy golden-amber with a thin, wispy white head. The aroma is immediately captivating — wild funk, green apple, lemon zest, and a dusty barnyard earthiness drift from the glass. On the palate, bright acidity leads the way, layered with stone fruit, tart cherry, and a subtle oak-like dryness. The 2018 vintage brings a pleasing complexity that only time and open-air fermentation can achieve. The finish is long, refreshingly dry, and gently funky, with lingering citrus and a whisper of brett character that invites another sip. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
