Hamilton Haul--Dream Pop Dry Hopped Sour w/ Orange & Passionfruit

The label on the 500mL bottle of Dream Pop Dry Hopped Sour w/ Orange & Passionfruit bills it as “liquid light show”. It’s a 6.2% ale from Hamilton’s Fairweather Brewing Co. The beer is a hazy golden sour ale with a thin, but durable white head.

Dream Pop has a tangy, tart, and fruity aroma. The flavour is genuinely, zealously sour, with tropical and citrus elements. There is a sweet undercurrent, but it’s subtle, when compared to the tartness.

Unlike many Ontario sours, Dream Pop really does live up to the term—it is a mouth-puckering sour ale. And I liked it.

Rating: 8.5 out of 10.
