Lorre is a sweet and sour beer with a taste of mango and passion fruit. It is a kettle sour, which means that various lactic acid bacteria are added to the kettle to acidify the wort to a pH of 3.2 for 48 hours. This strong acidity balances the sweetness due to a low degree of fermentation and the addition of lactose, which gives the beer a lot of residual sugar. Motueka hops added in the whirlpool give this beer a tropical hop aroma.

"Nice acidity and a sweet fruity hint, which is very nicely nuanced, a nice counterbalance to the acid. Very pleasant!"
