Brlo Sour if you want bright, clean tartness that won't overwhelm, Razzmatazz Sour if you want funky complexity with fruit punch depth.
Both sit in that session-friendly 4–5% range, but they're attacking sourness from different angles. Brlo's restrained IBU count means the acid hits you straight; Razzmatazz's slightly higher bitterness anchors its wild yeast character. Pick based on mood: refreshment or intrigue.

Brlo Sour
Brlo Sour tastes like someone bottled a tart white wine and carbonated it—clean, direct acidity without any funk or barnyard notes. The 4.8% ABV gives it just enough body to feel substantial, but it's not hiding behind anything. You get lemon zest and a white grape snap on the finish. It's the kind of sour that makes you want another one immediately.
Razzmatazz Sour
Razzmatazz Sour hits different—there's a wild yeast character that feels a bit fuzzy and unpredictable, like drinking something aged in a barrel you're not entirely sure about. The fruit notes aren't natural; they're more like a jam or candy sweetness threading through the sourness. The slightly higher IBU (15 vs. 10) gives it backbone, keeping it from being one-dimensional. It's weirder, and that's the point.
