Has anyone done a sour lager? It never occurred to me to do that, but I was just drinking one of my favorite local beers and realized it's a soured lager. Next time I brew a fruited kettle sour, I'm thinking about going the lager route. Anyone else done this before or have thoughts on it?

No experience but it sounds delicious!

New Belgium uses lager yeast for their sour beers. Their sour team feels it gives them a little more predictability. I've used all sorts of yeast for sour beer and don't feel it results in a huge difference.
