How to get beer stain out of brown leather jacket

Hey everyone, about a year ago I bought a Lewis leathers lumberjack in brown sheepskin leather. Not long after I bought it I noticed it was staining easily which I made a post about. Over the weekend I was wearing it and a very small amount of beer spilt on me. Looks like it has lightly stained the jacket which seems strange.

Any advice about how to get it out?

Thanks!

Gonna have to dip the entire jacket in that beer. For consistency, make sure it’s the from the same brewery batch.

Tbh, I’d just leave it be. It doesn’t look bad and over time will probably blend in as the rest of the jacket evolves.

You can try to use a sponge a try to pat the area with soap water. It may fade the stain.

No real way to avoid stains like these with sheepskin or “naked” leather (those without a sealed topcoat). I have a brand new cowhide jacket in.a natural colour that got a huge stain down the back from dripping water. Part of the journey.
There is no way to really get stains “out”, but you can kind off fade them into the leather. Over time, the jacket will simply look lived in.

Great jacket, by the way. A style not seen to often. It would be great to see it being worn.
