    Honestly never intended this blend to make sour beer, have been surprised by how many reports I've gotten of pH <3.5 (even with some moderate hopping in some cases).

    I hadn't thought about it. Makes sense. I haven't experimented with dry hopping an sours yet, but it's on my to-do list. Probably should pick up a pH meter one of these days, too.

    It's certainly useful. :slight_smile: And decent ones aren't terribly expensive, either.

    That's some complex aroma right there. And somebody really likes flowers...

    floral
    dried flowers
    magnolia flowers
    flowers

    Reminds me of John Belushi on SNL naming 3 countries:
    "Belgium... Belgium... and Kansas City."

    I'm straining my brain to come up with substitutes, but the only thing I can think of is Tupelo, which maybe has "floral, "spicy," and "herbs" covered. I'm interested to hear what others come up with.

    So sad that I missed out on this pre sale!

    Does anyone want to share? :slight_smile:
