Hopworks Urban Brewery releases limited-edition High Lift Cherry Sour
Often when the words kettle sour tumble out of someone’s mouth, the first thing that comes to mind is sour. No appreciation for the process that goes into producing said kettle sour. Just the word sour. Oh sure, the brewery could add fruit to the mix, but the word sour has already scorched-earth your thoughts on how good or refreshing this beer might be. Hopworks Urban Brewery, in Portland, is hoping you’ll eschew your immediate thoughts on this being a “sour” and pick up this limited-edition beaut’ because this writer said so.

With the name High Lift Cherry Sour, Hopworks Urban Brewery has produced a kettle sour, made with Cherries from nearby Oregon Fruit Products.
“We’ve been wanting to brew a sour that highlights the best of Oregon’s cherry harvest,” said Matt Speckenbach, Head Brewer at Hopworks. “We’re extremely proud of High Lift and how the brewers crafted a very well-rounded sour that’s perfect for the transition into spring!”
