Fruited Kettle Sour

Fruited Kettle Sours are modern sour beers made through a quick souring process using Lactobacillus in the brew kettle, followed by the addition of fruit. These beers typically feature bright acidity, prominent fruit character, and a clean finish without the funky complexity of mixed-fermentation sours. Originally inspired by Berliner Weisse and Gose styles, Fruited Kettle Sours have become popular craft beer offerings, especially with additions of berries, stone fruits, or tropical fruits.
