Funky Blondy Mixed Fermentation Sour
Brewed by students from the University of Limpopo, this blonde sour beer was awarded bronze in the Intervarsitybrew competition’s sour beer category. The recipe uses a blonde ale base to express light to moderate malty aroma, possibly with a light bread or caramel note, and it also expresses low to moderate fruitiness, with medium hop aroma. Such low characters will not interfere with the sourness, acidity and funky character contributed by fermenting yeast and bacteria.

The quote from longtime beer author and owner of The Beverage People in Santa Rosa, Byron Burch: “An excellent, very rich stout made by Dr. John Boulton of the Malts. After sufficient lip-smacking on my part, he was good enough to send me his recipe and allow me to make it public. This is a true stout lovers (sic) stout.”
