I'd like to try making a sour ale, but I'm not sure how to go about this. I recently brewed a blonde ale, to soon be racked onto strawberries for a Strawberry Blonde. I've done the recipe a few times and it's never dawned on me to try and sour it. (I did search the forum and found a similar thread, but my beer has already been brewed and I'm not sure how to proceed.) So, my plan is to rack half of the beer onto some strawberries for my regular Strawberry Blonde, and sour the other half. So, should I go ahead and rack the sour onto the strawberries and just wait, or should I sour first and then add the strawberries? I'm a complete noob when it comes to souring a beer, so any and all comments, suggestions, and "you're and idiot"'s, are welcome. Thanks in advance!!
