Rustic Lager is not Lager reinvented, it’s Lager remembered. Brewed using a blend of our house yeast, with an amber colour from 100% British malt and a dry hop bitterness from Pacific Northwest hops, this 4.5% beer is unfiltered and unfined.

Rustic lager is taking lager back from thin, over processed, industrial monsters and unreliable reinventions, giving you a crisp, refreshing drink without filters or additives.

330ml bottle BB 2nd February 2024, so just out of date when poured into my beautiful old dab meister pils glass tankard at home on 23rd February. Bit of a gusher, snow white foam leaving the neck of the bottle straight away. Once settled I got a slightly hazed golden body with the aforementioned white head. Actually this is very pleasant and tasty.

Bottle. Slightly cloudy dark orange with a small white head. Aroma of apples and vinegar and thus basically a cider. Taste of apples, vinegar, lemons, grains, minerals and wood. Tart and sour. Low bitterness. Strong carbonation. Not sure what to make of this but calling this a Lager is at least confusing and misleading to put it mildly. Reading the older reviews it really seems they either changed something quite drastically or they messed up this particular batch and decided to sell it anyway.

Nice dark amber colour. Large head and lots of audible fizziness, but it drops down to 1cm in short time. Sour cider nose, hint of apples, toffee. Bitter lemon in the mouth, again more reminiscent of cider than lager. Finish a bit watery. Ok. Strange reading the other reviews left me wondering: is it actually a sour beer at all? Possibly a dud.
