SOUR ALE

The alcohol content is up to the creator!
(DD4D's standard sour ale "DAILY DOSE" is 5%)

As the name suggests, sour ale is characterized by its punchy sourness . Rather than a specific beer style, it is a generic term for "sour beer".
The sourness that gradually spreads on the tongue is due to the fact that it is fermented using not only ale yeast but also lactic acid bacteria . Thanks to lactic acid fermentation, it is not just sour, but you can fully enjoy the original richness and individuality of the beer behind it.

Among sour ales, there is a style called lambic that uses not only ale yeast but also wild yeast . Wild yeast is a yeast that is made by exposing the yeast to the air and using the action of natural microorganisms . Natural fermentation creates unique and complex flavors for each land and season. Most lambics are made in Belgium, the home of beer making.

Gose is a type of sour ale. By adding salt and coriander as secondary ingredients, the sourness and refreshing taste are further emphasized. The faint saltiness is irresistible, and on a hot day you can't help but reach out for it.

Berliner Weisse is a lactic acid fermented beer made from wheat. Drinking with syrup is the local style in Berlin. With an alcohol content of about 3%, it is exceptionally easy to drink, and the complex taste of wild yeast weaves together a satisfying drink.
