Scratch 197 - Belgian-style Brown Ale (Sour Blackberry) | Tröegs Independent Brewing
ABV: 7.5%
IBU: 10
Style: American Wild Ale
Actively Produced
Description: We brewed this sour Belgian-style Dubbel with fresh blackberries. The addition of blackberries adds another dimension to the flavor of this ale by peppering hints of rose, cedar, mint, and mild clove with the dominant toffee and stone fruit flavors of the base beer. Dark Belgian Candi and Demerara sugars (the latter, an unrefined, large-grain golden sugar) bolsters the ale’s sweetness. Throwing caution to the wind, we decided to introduce lactobacillus into the fold. This process produces lactic acid, which imparts a subtle mustiness and soft, pleasant tartness (think Sour Patch Kids candy). It’s time to get your “bramble” on!
