More and more microbreweries, and even some big players in the beer world, are starting to make their own. So, which styles should you try? Here is a quick guide.

Lambic

Lambics are one of the most classic sour beer styles, originating in Belgium centuries ago. This beer style is fermented through exposure to wild yeasts, giving it a funky and sour taste that can be altered by the addition of fruits.

Gose

Are light beers more your thing? If so, the low-alcohol and utterly drinkable Gose style might be a great choice for you. This beer, which has recently surged in popularity, is sour and salty and goes great for a day full of yard work.

American Wild Ale

While sour beers are originally from Germany, American breweries have put their own twist on this style, most notably with the American Wild Ale style. This creation, similar to the Belgian lambic, introduces wild bacteria and yeasts from the American continent to create a whole new flavor profile.

One of the hottest trends in craft beer recently has been sour beers, and specifically, the introduction of fruited sours into the world of artisan suds.

Sour beers have a tart and/or acidic taste which is rare in the world of beer. While they may sound strange at first, this unique twist on beer is one of the most delicious creations that anyone in the craft beer industry has come up with.

When you add fruit flavors to the mix, the result is a crisp and refreshing beer that is truly second to none.

Brewers these days are beginning to take a sour beer base, which is made by using wild yeast strains or bacteria to give the beer a tart flavor and adding fruit pulp or juice to turn it into a fruited sour. This works especially well with fruits that have a bit of tartness such as blueberries and cherries.

Have you tried a fruited sour beer yet? What did you think?
