    So excited for a sour collaboration from two of my favorite sour making brewers.

    Per their blog post:
    Light Synth is a blend of 50% New Belgium Felix, 40% Upland Sour Reserve, and 10% Upland Cherry Lambic. Light Synth is pleasantly sour, with notes of fresh cherries and fruity esters, and a dry mouthfeel. Dark Synth is a blend of 50% New Belgium Oscar, 40% Upland Dantalion, and 10% Upland Raspberry Lambic. Dark Synth has a moderate body with clean sour notes, hints of raspberries and chocolate, with a gentle aroma of herbs and spices. New Belgium will be bringing a blend of Light Synth with 10% Boon Kriek, and Dark Synth to FoBAB this weekend, and Upland will release 750 ml bottled versions in early 2014.
