Shimmer is a Black Hibiscus Sour, brewed to 7% using a light malt base with multiple dark malts for a light chocolate flavour. We steeped 15g/l hibiscus in the beer for refreshing floral and cranberry flavours to balance the dark sour base. The name 'Shimmer' is a link to our imperial hibiscus sour Charm, and is also the collective term for a group of hummingbirds, represented in the artwork.

Keg @ House of Grain. Pours dark, unclear, deep tan head. Smooth palate, mildly tangy but lacking in hibiscus or any floral notes at all, instead reliant on a mild chocolate character. Disappointing.
