The Welder's Dog Spelt Sour

Style

ABV

Sour beers may have once been a rarity in the local beer world but today, they’ve made the move to become a regular sight on pub taps and into a permanent spot in many brewery’s core ranges. It’s for good reason too with the lower ABV, tart finish and ability to quench a thirst really suiting Australia’s climate. Spelt Sour is a beer by The Welder’s Dog that aims to not only be a thirst quencher but to offer enough complexity to challenge the palate too.

It uses aromatic spelt malt alongside locally grown barley (which is true for most Welder’s beers) for beer that smells like fresh-baked baked bread and has a slight note of sourdough when you drink it too. Along with that and Spelt Sour's refreshing acidity, there’s also lemon zest and pear which makes the beer come across like a close cousin to a light Sauvignon Blanc.
