The Sour Lovers Gift Pack is made for people who light up at the word tart. This pairing brings together two expressive, barrel-aged sour beers from opposite sides of the Atlantic, offering a deep dive into how wild fermentation and time in wood can create wildly different, equally compelling results.
Bière Gris from Little Beast Brewing in Portland blurs the line between beer and wine. Made with Pinot Gris juice from Oregon’s Chehalem Mountains and aged in oak, it has a soft vinous character with floral aromatics, gentle acidity, and notes of lemon, fruit, and pineapple candy. At higher alcohol and layered with wild yeast, it is bright, playful, and wonderfully unexpected.
Cuvée des Jacobins Prestige brings classic Belgian gravitas to the set. Spontaneously fermented and aged for two full years in oak foeders, this Flemish sour is deeper, darker, and more structured. Expect complex Brett character, stone fruit, green apple, dried berries, and subtle vanilla and oak, with a bold yet beautifully balanced sour backbone.
Together, these beers make an exceptional gift because they tell a complete sour story. One is modern, wine-influenced, and gently playful. The other is traditional, cellar-worthy, and richly complex. It is a perfect set for sour beer devotees, adventurous drinkers, or anyone who loves thoughtful fermentation and unforgettable flavors.
