    I was skeptical about the Lallemand Philly Sour yeast over more traditional souring methods, but it produces a very pleasant, easy-drinking sour. It has quickly become a favourite at our small, seasonal taproom.

    I've personally found that kettle sours almost always have a strong DMS funk to them that is really distracting. Not a fan. I've used Philly Sour a few times and it has always turned out far cleaner than my kettle sour attempts, or brewery sour beers. Would highly recommend for sure. Thanks for the vid!

    Do you think you could recreate the original Newcastle recipe? The new recipe they have in the States is awful and it's a beer that used to bring back so many memories.

      Based on what I've learned since making this you do not need to worry about sour bacteria infecting gear with those yeast (sourvisiae/philly sour) it just produces lactic acid during fermentation but you can clean as normal

    • @TheBruSho
      @TheBruSho  11 місяців тому +1

      Thanks! And I would say the vanilla flavor is very light with the amount I used. More to complete the key lime pie theme but totally could be omitted if you don’t like it

      Nah, not like it's bad or anything. I'm sure vanilla does add sweetness that may combo lime flavour as long it doesn't overpowering.
      Similarly, how I used orange and elderflower for brew I made. I'll have to see if the tastes well balance or not.)

    Thanks a bunch for this video! I'm just starting to get into brewing and I've always been interested in trying to brew my own gose and this one seems super interesting to me. I do have one question though, in the listed recipe you have:
    "Boil for 30 mins, 0.25oz Motueka @ 30min, -0.5oz Motueka @ flameout"
    Is there a typo in this? Wouldn't this just be adding all the hops at 30 minutes or am I misunderstanding a step?

    • @TheBruSho
      @TheBruSho  5 місяців тому
