You’ve heard the phrase “Beers with Beshear,” and now it’s coming to KentuckySportsRadio.com Thursday through Sunday. Like many Kentuckians across the state at 5:00 pm, we are going to start having a “Beer with Beshear” on the website.

With taprooms, bars and restaurants closed across the state, the craft beer industry in Kentucky is suffering. Each day we will highlight a different Kentucky craft beer to show our support of all the amazing breweries across our Commonwealth.


False Idol Independent Brewers: Saint Hyena

I used to really be into the super tart and puckering sour beers, but not so much anymore. I like sour beers but not as much as I used to. That’s why I love Saint Hyena from False Idol Independent Brewers in Louisville.

Saint Hyena is a kettle-sour pale ale. It is slightly sour and malty at the same time. If you have never had a sour IPA or sour pale ale, you beee to try one. Especially if you like either of those styles. 

To do a sour pale ale well is hard. A brewer needs to find the right combination of sour and pale ale. False Idol knocks it out of the ballpark with Saint Hyena.

Style: Sour Pale Ale

ABV: 5%

IBU: 38

Description:  Kettle-soured Pale Ale dry-hopped with Amarillo hops. Tart, smooth and citrusy with a savory grain.
