From the label“THIS IS NOT A KETTLE SOUR. Inside this can is a flavor odyssey so intense it can only be called a HYPERNOVA. Made with astronomical amounts of real fruit and a touch of lactose, this 100% mixed-culture and barrel-aged sour explosion might just warp space, time and your tastebuds. Prepare for interstellar travel!”
