Dry-Hopped Sour·United States·5.7% ABV·One of 10 Dry-Hopped Sours in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Aunt Sally's sour and tart character. A dry-hopped, sweet-tart sour mash ale at 5.7 %: it tastes like fruity candy or chewable flavored vitamins, sweet, tart and sassy like a favorite aunt's cherry pie. The wort is soured on the hot side with Lactobacillus for a few days, then dry-hopped, which leaves it smooth and hoppy. Founder Tony Magee stayed on as Executive Chairman after Heineken took over in 2017.
