American wild ale explained

American wild ale is a sour beer brewed in the United States using yeast or bacteria in addition to Saccharomyces cerevisiae for fermentation.[1] [2] [3] Such beers are similar to Belgian Lambic and Oud bruin, and typically fermented using a strain of brettanomyces,[4] resulting in a "funky" flavor.[5] [6] [7] [8]
