Cucumber, the Boldest Sour Fruit
Thorn's Low Hanging Sour series has run Plum, Pineapple, Peach and Cherry — and then there's cucumber: the most savory-leaning fruit the series has taken on, and the one that suits a tart golden sour best. The base beer is Thorn's mixed-fermentation sour — tart and crisp with a clean, acidic presence — and the cucumber lands as cool, green refreshment rather than salad. It's the rare fruited sour that tastes designed for a San Diego afternoon. Find more Thorn Brewing beers and the craft beer collection.
