I will be buying a 52.5 gallon wood barrel and 50lbs of Malt Extract from someone for $200. I want to make a sour beer (I think).

What on earth do I do with this?
 
Well, first, it seems like a good deal. I've also got 60lbs of honey sitting around. But I have no idea how much stuff I need to fill this barrel and what kind of beer I need to do it. I'd prefer something (a) that takes a long time and (b) that can be mixed so there is always something new going.

I was thinking something sour because it seems to fit (a) and (b)
