Пиво Philly Smasher - Wheaty Brewing Corps

For our first proper hoppy sour (ie one without yoghurt and coffee ;)) we played with a lean and wheaty malt bill, fermented with Lallemand Brewing Philly Sour Yeast and loaded the late Hops with wine-like and citrusy varieties Enigma, Nelson, Citra and Motueka. Philly Sour Yeast is a species of Lachancea (ie not a conventional Saccaromyces beer yeast) isolated by the Uni of Philadelphia, which produces moderate levels of lactic acid in addition to ethanol during primary fermentation- two for the pitch of one! The result: Hoppy, aromatic, tart and dry with a peachy clean acidity. Philly smashable.
