Lemon Cheesecake Sour
A sour ale that walks the line between confection and brightness: sweet on entry, but Sicilian lemon zest cuts through with an immediate sharpness that pulls the palate alert. The grist bill runs biscuity underneath, anchoring what could otherwise drift into pure dessert territory. Hand-scraped vanilla runs abundant and fresh, while lactose adds a creamy weight that softens the acidic spine. The result is less a dessert beer than a playful contradiction—soft yet awakening, indulgent yet zesty. Best served cold as an aperitif or after a meal when you want something both comforting and bright.
