The result is a refreshing and complex sour ale that's perfect for those who appreciate the interplay of sweet and sour. The rhubarb lends a vibrant, fruity note that's balanced by the beer's inherent acidity, while the barrel aging adds a layer of depth and complexity. At 3.5% ABV, this Catharina Sour is a sessionable and approachable option for sour beer enthusiasts.
