Session Thiolized Sour Ale. This year's collaboration with our friends at Pipeworks Brewing is one for the homies. Touting notes of tart green grape and zippy candied orange, this co-fermented sour is dry, spritzy, and endlessly sippable. Enjoy one around the kitchen island, the back deck, or even the roof (if you can swing it.) Don't wake the neighbors.

Can pour at Pilot Project, no date
The beer I just had here from Brewer’s Kitchen didn’t particularly impress me, but this one intrigued me enough to put that aside and give it a shot. I don’t think I’ve had any thiolized yeast beers yet, and the Pipeworks collab doesn’t hurt either. Let’s get into it
Pours a mostly clear pale yellow with 2 fingers of soapy white head that fades to a thin cap and leaves decent lacing
The nose has a sharpness reminiscent of brett fermented beers, though not as aggressive. I’m picking up on aroams of pineapple, lemon zest, mango skin, white pepper, ceackery malt, wildflower honey, tannic white wine, and orange zest
In taste there isn’t much evolution to it, but it comes and goes quick with an exciting tartness. On the front end of the sip I’m tasting lemon juice, pineapple, mango skin, papaya, crackery malt, wet hay, wildflower honey, and grassy hops. The swallow brings notes of lemon zest, orange zest, tannic white wine, wet hay, crackery malt, atone, wildflower honey, underripe peach, and light grassy hops
A light body pairs with moderate carbonation, resulting in a slick yet sharp beer. Finishes a tad sticky but dries out over time
Oh yeah, this is a fun one. The sharp tartness is doing the heavy lifting but that’s fine by me
