Dry-Hopped Sour·Canada·5.5% ABV·One of 8 Dry-Hopped Sours in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Nectarous's sour and tart character. The best-known sour in the range and one of the year-round beers: dry-hopped, 5.5%, and just 6 IBU, so acidity rather than bitterness carries it. Four Winds lists complex acidity balanced by tropical fruit esters and a clean, tart finish, and marks the beer as an award winner. It comes in 473 ml cans, and the brewery builds a mixed Nectar Pack around it.
