I know people who love them, but I can’t for the life of me understand the semi recent popularity of sours. I’ve tried several and all I taste is old sock
Sour beers are a thing you will try the first time and hate initially, then a few days later you will think that sour was pretty good. This also assumes you get a good sour, and not something that’s basically vinegar, which is harder than is should be.
Definitely not my experience, I tried several a while back from a few local breweries that made stuff I loved in the past and just did not care for anything about the flavor or taste, but I don’t have to drink them so enjoy. I’ll stick to the ESBs, pilsners, and IPAs
I’m not a brewer, but I’m assuming that the process is slightly different. Try a sour from a company that’s known for making sours. There are a lot of very delicious ones out there.
Appreciate the advice, but I’ve been through many that were acclaimed by folks that love sours, just not to my pallet. Everyone else go nuts but I’m not interested, and there’s plenty of other beer out there I do like so I’m not missing out
That’s definitely fair. I just know that whenever someone says, “I hate X type of beer,” they typically mean they haven’t had one that suits their palate yet.
