Our Hippy Berliner was such a success that we ebbed to consumer demand and brewed a special edition with the addition of cooling cucumber. Bursting with sweet cucumber notes, balanced by lemon peel and tropical fruits. On the palate this beer is puckering, but very refreshing, full of cucumber, citrus and balanced by light hopping, finishing very clean.

Can shared at THT actually July! Bit hazy pale straw with white head. Massive cucumber, soft lactic sourness, a hint of malts. Really not much else, just salad. Light sour. Light bodied. Watery cucumber salad juice. Not bad though.

Puszka. Słomkowe, opalizujące. Aromaty owocowo - chmielowy: cytrusy, trochę żywicy, delikatna słodowość. Nuty jogurtowe nikłe, schowane pod nimi. Lekko kwaśne, z finiszem w postaci smaku świeżego ogórka. Orzeźwiające ale nic specjalnego.

Hackney Bottleshare. A Wingman can, cheers! Light haze on this pale gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, decent carbonation. Thin malts. Tangy cucumber is obvious and enlivened by a little lemon sherbet. Dry crispy finish. Amusing but couldn't drink a pint.

Can at LKS thanks to Dave. It pours clear pale golden/yellow with a medium white head. The aroma is soft, fresh, fragrant, lemon sherbet, green veg, cucumber, celery and quavers. The taste is crisp, dry, tart, lemon sherbet, cucumber, minerals, aloe vera and a hint of acidity with a dry finish. Light – medium body and average carbonation. Clean, fresh and easy drinking. Decent.
