This was my attempt at producing something along the lines of Karl Strauss Soured Red Trolly. They had a barrel aged sour at their restaurant which was fantastic.

I brewed some Red Trolley clone, then soured it back by blending with some pre-made Petrus 100% Foeder beer, then bottled it with some priming sugar and some extra US05 yeast. Turned out pretty good. I’ve done this several times, works out pretty well. At the fridge bottom is a bunch of other sours made that way. Easy way to experiment with sours.

My buddy came over to drink my HB Kolsch. One more pint and I’ll be fearless and handsome. This may be the best beer I’ve brewed so far.
