Laying down my first long term sour sometime over the next week or so. I was hoping to make something along the lines of a sour Belgian Golden. Mashing around 156F. Plan to diversify bugs with a couple good commercial sours (good excuse to consume some of the Liefmans Goudenband and La Trou du Diable Bar Volo 25th Anniversary I have). Going to keep it all on the primary yeast trub for a year, adding the oak after the initial fermentation ceases. Might dry hop a little bit if it seems appropriate. Re-yeasting with champagne yeast at bottling time.
