My first thought on this was that the aroma of pils malt was misinterpreted as sour, but I thought I'd wait and see if anybody else had the same opinion. Since I'm the only one, let me say that pils malt has an aroma and flavor distinct from other base malts and I can imagine someone interpreting it as sour. Ask yourself if the sour aroma is more like lactic, citric, vinegar or something else. If you can't really identify it as one of those, it may be just the aroma of the malt.
