hopIQ take
Beetlejuice if you want a bigger, more assertive fruited sour;
Razzmatazz Sour if you want something wilder and more delicate.
Beetlejuice's 5.5% ABV gives it backbone—the fruit hits harder and lingers. Razzmatazz leans into the funk and unpredictability of wild fermentation, letting the yeast do the talking. Both are low-IBU sours, but they're philosophically different beers.

Beetlejuice
Beetlejuice announces itself immediately—there's real fruit presence here, not just a whisper. The berry character (that Pyrene touch) sits on top of a clean, tart base without getting murky. At 5.5%, it's got enough body to feel substantial in your mouth, which makes the acidity feel balanced rather than punishing. This is a sour you can actually taste the beer *behind*.
Razzmatazz Sour
Razzmatazz Sour is scrappier, funkier, less polished. There's a tartness that creeps up on you, and the wild ale character adds this unpredictable herbal or earthy undertone—you're never quite sure what you're tasting. At 4%, it's lean and nimble; the fruit reads more like a suggestion than a main event. This feels more alive, less engineered.
