Introducing Numero Uno Summer Cerveza, our just-released summer seasonal that begs for warm temps and long nights. Originally released as Agave Cerveza in the summer of 2014 as part of our Brewhouse Rarities program, it’s the artisanal answer to the easy-drinking, south-of-the-border slammers the younger versions of ourselves knew and loved.
Flaked maize makes up one third of the malt bill and highlights the distinctive corn and cracker flavor traditionally found in Mexican lagers. Agave is added at the end of the boil and the lime peel post-fermentation to impart a distinct, zesty character and a crisp, clean finish. Your new Summer Cerveza clocks in at 4.9% ABV.

Pale yellow, light fruit aroma. Taste is slightly sour fruit, but largely it's quite sweet. A touch of hop but this is thin and meh and the weakest thing Flying Dog have done.

Tap @ the brewery. Pours clear straw with airy white head. Clear aroma of hops and yeast, with malty touches. Bitter flavour of hops, with notes of yeast and malt and pronounced touches of citrus. Lingering, rough and acidic aftertaste. Well, more interesting than good but definitely drinkable.

Can from Tesco. Moderate fizz in quite a soft mouthfeel. Sour lager whiff up front. Taste is better than the smell, with light lemon and lime, a little biscuit and an odd slightly cloying milkiness in the finish (is this the influence of the agave? I have no idea what agave tastes like!). The flavours aren't overdone, and it's certainly more drinkable than other mass-market flavoured lagers I've tried. It's not great, but it's certainly better than I expected.

(Draught at In De Wildeman, Amsterdam, 27 July 2017) Pale golden colour with frothy, white head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of herbs, grass, sugar, bread and flowers. Fruity taste with citrus, herbs, soapy flavours and a mild grassy bitterness. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty and refreshing, but on the sweet side. Quite enjoyable.

Underwhelming like a caguama of Sol with bad tacos at a fake Mexican restaurant. Pours golden. Agave gives slight character to otherwise boring lager. Bottle.

slightly opalescent pale yellow colour, moderate sized and quickly collapsing head; aroma and taste of a grainy lager with wet cardboard, metallic and slight lemony notes; not better than a cheap lager

Dorada clara. Aroma ácido poco agradable. En boca desaparece. Refrescante, punzante de gas. Lima bien presente sin molestar. Objetivo conseguido. Informal y refrescante. Sin más pretensiones.
