Apeiron is a crushable India Pale Lager, with a small amount of lactic acid tartness aimed at increasing drinkability. We first laid a foundation of Vienna and Pilsen malt, and then co-fermented it with our house lager yeast and a lactic acid producing strain of yeast. We followed our typical lagering process for this beer and then extensively dry-hopped it with Idaho 7 and Ekuanot. The resulting IPL is crisp and clean, with dank hops on the nose accompanied by passion fruit on the palate and a very slight lactic presence on the back-end. It is not a sour ipa, but more of an exploration of what subtle levels of acidification can add to the overall composition of a beer, and we couldn't be happier with the results.

16oz can. Poured into a pint glass. Canned on 05/18/21.
Appearance: Pours a clear straw golden with 2 fingers of ample cloudy head. I seriously think just on looks alone this beer is perfect in appearance. Great clarity and delicate lace.
Smell: Rich dank hop aromas
Taste: similar to the nose with grapefruit bitterness but mellow grassy malt tones as well.
Mouthfeel: Full body at first but strong bitterness dries out the finish
Overall: A very impressive beer from Equal Parts. The best I have had thus far. Only reading the description did I see the addition of lactic acid, but I would not have discerned that on my own. The sour adds to it in a way that’s indescribable to me and really elevates the beer from the few IPLs I’ve had. I hope to see more of this beer.
