Cowbell is specially brewed using the “kettle souring” technique and flavoured with kaffir lime leaves. The result is a bold taste that is tangy, tart and refreshing. When you’re living a life that’s wild, strong and free, you’re gonna add more Cowbell!

Low tartness, but cleanly made, so it's pretty solid for a kettle sour, but not great in the scope of legit sours.

Lots of citrus but not much substance to this like politician promises. Tangy finish. Bottle.

341ml bottle. Pours a clear golden with a thin, fully dissipating, fizzy, white head. Mild, tart aroma of green apple, lemon and grain. Sweet, sour flavour of lemon, green apple, grain and yeast with a dry finish. Light body with a watery texture and fizzy carbonation.

Okay light copper body with no head. Minimal lager cherry aroma. Flavour is carbonated lager with ginger ale hints and lemon. I see this as a miss in the sour ale department, sadly.

Golden color. Slightly tart nose that is a touch salty (not sure why as it doesn’t seem salt was added). The mouth is semi-dry, well carbonated with mildly aggressive tartness. A bit heavy and not dry enough for the style, but still not bad. Very refreshing.
