WARNING: This is an oak-aged sour beer!  (Apparently a couple of the previously included sours have taken some members by surprise!)

This beer is a golden bronze, very zesty and alive though the head will settle quickly.  The aroma is sharply acidic, green apple and vinegar tartness with some Brett funk. 

Starting life as a normal pale ale, it then spends 20 months in oak barrels. 

Tart, sour but balanced and moreish.  Green apples, lemon, grapefruit and a woody funkiness.  The beer has a champagne-like quality, really lifting the palette and sharpening the senses.  The alcohol is almost non-existent, and this distinctive sour is just such easy-drinking. 

Awards for Petrus Aged Pale:  At recent World Beer Awards, this beer has won World’s Best Specialty Pale Ale 2011 and World’s Best Wood-Aged Beer 2012 and 2013.
