The latest in our Sour Series, we aimed to encompass the best flavours of a typical British summertime and throw it into a beer… just in time for this BBQ appropriate weather we are very much enjoying. Inspired by quintessential picnics on the beach, BBQs and countryside adventures and using ingredients synonymous with British summer time, the combination of strawberries and cucumbers evokes memories of sunny afternoons spent with friends and family; just how we want this beer to be enjoyed… (our beer version of that typical summertime drink, most famously drank and Wimbledon).
A sessionable 4.5% makes it perfect to enjoy on a hot, summer’s day; the strawberry adds a fresh sweetness whilst the cucumber adds a refreshing and cooling balance to the tartness of the sour beer.

Mother Kelly's. Keg. Hazy orange beer, small apricot colour head. Palate is light, dry and minerally crisp. Does what it says on the tin tart fresh cucumber and tart strawberry. The strawberry is great punchy tart but never acid sour. These two disparate elements work well. The strawberry counteracts the veggie vibe of the cucumber, the cucumber provides a mildly sweet counterpoint to the tart strawberry. Light dry crisp finish. Bought this for a laugh but it actually works well. That's what I love about beer, you can have thousands of them but still be pleasantly surprised.
