A collaboration with our friends at Saint Monday Brewery. We blended two golden sour batches, both primary fermented with Brettanomyces and aged for an average of 3.5 months. We conditioned this blend on 400kg (over 220g/l) of whole Morello cherries from a single orchard in Kent.
Morellos are plump and juicy sour cherries which produce a delightful flavour profile of sweet, sour and jammy complexity with a touch of bitterness. The resulting beer has a vibrant red colour, aromas of cherry drops, strawberry laces and a light musty funk. On the palate we get jammy hedgerow berries, boiled sweets and a touch of bitterness on the finish.

Plenty of tart to proper sour cherry.

On tap at The Green Goddess, Blackheath Royal Standard. Lots of red cherries in the nose, some raspberry, strawberry jam. Tart taste of cherry sherbet, raspberry jam. Jammy sweet & tart.

Bottle via the online shop. Hazed deep pink. Slim pink head. Kettle sour vibe here with a ton of dessert cherries. A bit wheaty. Tart and sour overall. Pretty acidic. Dry tart acidic finish. Not this brewers finest. I mean it’s definitely full of cherry tartness, but this isn’t offering anything memorable.
