S:t Eriks Sommar Ale är det första ekologiska ölet i S:t Eriks framgångsrika serie av mikrobryggda öl. Årets sommaröl är bryggt på Slottskällan i Uppsala av 100 procent ekoklassificerade råvaror, inklusive humle av sorten First Gold. Det är en dvärghumle med en fin, attraktiv, engelsk East Kent Golding karaktär som ger en apelsinaktig doft och arom.

S:t Eriks Sommar Ale har en lite lättare i kropp och karaktär i jämförelse med Jessica Heidrich tidigare öl, men hennes förkärlek till humle går ändå inte att ta miste på. Det gör S:t Eriks Sommar Ale till en perfekt måltidsdryck en somrig lunch eller picknick med exempelvis inkokt lax, grillade kycklingklubbor, wraps eller spenatpaj med fetaost.

Ölet är vackert bärnstensfärgat med en humlearomatisk, nyanserad doft med inslag av apelsin. Smaken är elegant balanserad med aromatiska toner av gräs, knäckebröd, fruktkaka och avslutande beska med inslag av Sevilla-apelsin.

Bottle at ChrisO’s Pre-GBBF Shindig 2011. Pours clear gold with a small, white head. Slight plastic hops in the nose, hints of straw. Moderate sweetness. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Bit more straw bitters in the finish, faint bread. Not memorable. (3) Had another go at this at RBESG 2011 Grand Tasting at The Dean Swift, London. Enjoyed it more. (3.6)

Bottled. A hazy dark golden beer with a lazing off-white head. The aroma has notes of straw, malt, and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of metal, malt, bread, and minerals, leading to a dry metallic finish. Thanks joergen for sharing.

Bottle. Clear golden with a white fluffy head. Too weak and not that interesting. Butter, some fruit and yeast. Short aftertaste.

Bottled. Clear bright golden, minimal head. Peachy aroma with lagerlike fruitiness behind. Sweet with clean, hard mouthfeel and fairly light body. Tinny, fruity and sharp. Too lightly hopped to cover the shortcomings in the malt department. Notes of fat and vegetables. Slight salty finish. Like an industrial lager with some polish on top.

Bottled:
Pours a clear amber colour with a frothy head. Butter and grassy hops on the nose. Flavour is pretty much like the aroma followed by a bitter finish.
