Notes

A light summer beer, traditionally served with fruit syrups that you mix in to taste.

After mashing and sparging, cool to 110-120 °F and pitch the Lactobacillus. Hold at this temperature for 1-4 days until the desired sourness is reached. Then proceed with the rest of the brew as usual: boil, cool, and pitch the yeast.
