Here’s the Summer Sour Recipe You’ll Be Sweet On
We think summer is the perfect time to brew up a pucker-worthy sour that you can sip poolside or on your front porch with some neighbors. And just in time for your summer brewing is the release of WildBrew™ Philly Sour yeast. It is a unique species of Lachancea selected from nature by University of the Sciences in Philadelphia, PA, USA (Patent pending N° PCT/US20 18/043 148). WildBrew™ Philly Sour produces moderate amounts of lactic acid in addition to ethanol in one simple fermentation step.
It is a great choice for sessionable sour beers--producing a brew with refreshing acidity and notes of stone fruit.
Here’s the official 5 gallon recipe:
Mash @ 149F
8.5 pounds Pale Malt
1.0 pound flaked Wheat
0.5 pound Flaked Oats
Total Boil Time Time 60 Minutes
1.0 oz Mt. Hood @ 45 Minutes
0.5 oz Cascade @ 15 minutes
