Featured Beer
RIKRI BREWING introduced a Yuzu Sour called "Skit". With an ABV of 3.5%, it is designed around a lower alcohol level, while also building in enough density to give it satisfying body.
Flavor Highlights
By steeping yuzu peel, the beer draws out a vivid, three-dimensional citrus aroma along with a subtle bitterness. The base is a sour ale made with Philly Sour, and the yeast adds soft, sweet aromas reminiscent of stone fruit. The result is a recipe that leaves a gentle acidity and a refreshing yuzu finish within a light, easy-drinking body.
Recipe Composition
The malt bill uses Weyermann Pilsner Malt and IREKS Wheat Malt light. The hops are CIP076, and the adjunct is Yuzu, with Philly Sour as the yeast. While keeping yuzu at the center of the aroma, the beer comes across as a sour carefully built around balance between acidity and body.
Origin of the Name
"Skit" comes from a BRON-K song title, inspired by the idea of a short track inserted between album cuts, like a light yet memorable beer. The way the beer's character connects to the naming concept also makes it especially interesting to drinkers.
