Oonagh's Secret
/One of the great things about our occasional tap-rooms is that we get to share some of the experiments on our nano-kit, and some of the favourites have been the sour wans.
Laurie says that for this, "we went the kettle sour route, using a new sour pitch yeast that's just arrived. It's produced a very clean, smooth sourness that is at the lighter end of the spectrum of sour. So it's a good introduction to sour beers for those who haven't been there before. We dry hopped it judiciously so that the hops don't take over. All in all a nicely balanced crystal clear sour if you remember to pour steadily in wan go , hai!"
Oonagh was the wife of legendary giant Finn McCool, and her sharp thinking must have put a quare sour bake on the Scot giant Benandonner.
