I never (intentionally ) brewed a sour beer before so want to give this a try.
Maybe I'm getting mixed up with Brett but will this thing not keep on fermenting (getting sourer) or the process goes so quick that all sugars are eaten up in a few weeks and the sour pitch stops working?
I guess you could make a sour pale ale with the base sour beer?
Instead of adding it to fruit just add about 2oz of hops as a dry hop. - Any of Amarillo, Vic Secret, Citra, Galaxy, Mosaic would be nice.
Would the dry hops kill off the sour pitch or it needs to be IBUs from boiling?
Then another option would be just to add a hop tea boiled for about 10 mins and filtered in the French press.
