Eastlake Sour Haze

Eastlake Sour Haze. Juicy Fruitless Sour Ale Dry-hopped with Mosaic.
4.8 % ABV.
Eastlake Craft Brewery, Minneapolis, MN.

Highly hazed, dull orange color, slim white head.

In the nose: Big sour, fruity, hoppy, all at once. Funky stuff, for sure.

In the mouth: Intense sour at the start, Mosaic hops popping on the palate. Juicy, fruity, ending dry. Stone fruit, citrus, bits o' berries. Tropical tones, too. Clean, yet funky, and fairly easy-drinking. Not bad at all.

Our souring regimen joined the cool pool party hopping we use for our juicy IPAs. It’s a full-frontal fruit onslaught of passionfruit, pineapples, and nearly ripe raspberry, fruitless, yet fruitful.
