Souron

Tap to rate

Souron is a Berliner Weisse-style sour and, at 3.1%, sits at the low strength usual for the style. It is light in body with a pronounced, tangy sourness, which makes it a refreshing counterpoint to the hop-led beers on the brewery's taps. It was new in spring 2026 and stayed on tap at the Plymouth taproom until late summer.

◌ Aroma

The nose is restrained and inviting, dominated by a clean lactic sourness that cuts through the beer's minimal malt character. There is a faint cereal note from the pale Malz base, with a whisper of yeasty phenolics that adds subtle complexity without overwhelming the delicate profile.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with an immediate tangy bite, the pronounced sourness taking center stage and defining the entire tasting arc. Body is light and crisp, offering no sweetness to counterbalance the acidity; instead, a dry, mineral-like quality carries through the mid-palate. Bitterness is nearly absent, with only a faint spicy edge from the low IBU count providing any herbal contrast.

◑ Finish

The finish is short and clean, the sourness lingering briefly before fading to a bone-dry aftertaste. A faint chalky minerality persists, emphasizing the beer's role as a palate refresher.
