Does anybody really LOVE sours?

I've completely avoided the style all together based on the name "SOUR'. Does not sound inviting.

I imagine they taste like a can of Squirt mixed with Sour Patch Kids. No thanks.

 

No. If I wanted to drink vinegar or ReaLemon I would do just that.

 

I'll eat offal anytime. I can't do sours/geuze/ anything w/ funk. It just isn't in me. And I've been given a few choice cantillons. Couldn't finish any except the raspberry, which was the mildest in the lot.

feel bad missing out on a whole genre of beers... oh well.

 

Sours are good, they are a nice departure from my regular style consumption but I don't I could drink them everyday.

 

Yes

 

I've had a few and they taste like throwing up in your mouth. It's comforting to know that if I ever start to enjoy the style, I always have some in my belly.

 

sours are definitely more polarizing than most styles, you either love them or hate them and they tend to be either very good or very mediocre. I'll say this, I hate hate hate ciders and think sours are a leaps and bounds better alternative for that ballpark of flavor

 

We cann't get squirt here sooooo

ISO squirt mixed with Sour Patch Kids. Will give extra if it is aged over sour gummy worms.

 

I love Gueuze, Flanders reds, unblended Lambics, Kriek, Framboise, and even sours with crushed Belgian candi sugar added. What's not to like?

 

I like them, but I have to be in the mood. They are just a change of pace for me. Once or twice a month is enough.

 

I fucking love em.. That being said, can't usually get enough good sours to drink them often enough.

 

Not a fan of the Sours. Went to Russian River and did the 18 beer sampler it was a struggle for me to finish. Which is a shame as Russian River seems to dominate the Sour market on the west coast. Funny thing about sours my wife will not drink a beer for the life of her but she said she could imagine finishing some of the Russian River beers to her they tasted like wine.

 

Love 'em. I'll take a good sour any day over an IPA.

 

I think they're great. But never going to be my first choice when i stop by my local bottle shop. I might grab a bottle or two if im makin a haul just to have in my fridge. But if im stoppin off after work, nothing caps off my day like a good ipa.

 

Yep.

 

Can tolerate them. Never crave one. Agree with the above said about a BA stout.

 

For most people that would be pretty impressive. But it's only a small percentage of what you've tried. So I guess pretty chill would be about right

 

I enjoy them, but mostly as a curiosity. I can't sit there and drink one after another, and I usually don't keep any on hand. I might have one every couple months.

 

My feelings for Rodenbach Grand Cru and Tilquin Oude Gueuze could more accurately be described as lust; I just cannot control myself in their presence.

 

Like? Sure. Really love? Nah, not really. There are some really great sours out there, but none really blow my hair back.
