The Beer Kitchen Orange Peel beer demonstrates the diverse flavours that can be created with experimentation in new and sometimes limited malt and hop varieties. Munich malt, traditionally used for Bock beers because of its higher than usual levels of sweetness and body, is used alongside American hops Cascade, Willamette and Citra and natural dried orange peel. The ingredients unite to form a beer that truly lives up to its name. On first sight the beer entices with a striking clear golden-orange colour. There is an intense orange and citrus nose, which continues with confidence through to the mouth. The beer is fruity with a caramel sweetness, that is well balanced by the imparting bitterness drawn from the hops.

Bottle, gift from Mum & Dad - cheers. Pours light amber with a large off-white head and a soft fizz. The mouthfeel is nice and soft too- very mellow and relaxing. Unfortunately all the flavours are on the soft side too- there’s a bit of the bitterness of orange peel maybe, but little of the flavour. There’s a vague hint of piney hops in the background if you really search for it. The main flavour though is caramel- and even that is quite muted. All in all it’s ok, but it’s just so understated that you can’t see the point of it- it’s certainly very difficult to believe it’s 6%.
