From Hangar 24:

Saturday, January 23rd our popular sour blonde ale releases in the Tasting Room! Sales will begin at11AM, where you may purchase up to three bottles! This ale packed with apricots is a refreshingly sour beer that you don't want to miss.

How It's Made:
It begins as a blonde ale brewed with both malted and unmalted wheat, a blank canvas which is laid down in freshly emptied white wine barrels and topped off with our house souring culture. Over the course of a year, the yeast and bacteria transform the liquid, bringing forth a beer that is both deeply funky and satisfyingly sour. The barrels are then blended back together just before the final addition- a generous helping of fresh apricots plucked from Blossom Bluff Orchards in Central California. The tart flavors and aromas of the fresh fruit perfectly balance the acidic, bracingly sour base developed in the barrel.
Bottles are $20 and a limit of three per person.
