Description
One day, Dave Grant and David McHardy had have enough of their jobs at an oil and gas company. They decided to follow their shared passion and establish a brewery. Under the name Fierce Beer they brew a selection of quirky beers, which have already collected the necessary prices in a short time.

Craft lager - intended as a standard pale 'macro' lager though - by Fierce in Aberdeen, apparently brewed for the local soccer team; had this in a pub in Aberdeen called The Noose & Monkey, where the landlady recommended it. Snow white, medium thick, papery lacing, rather creamy and firm head over a clear pale straw blonde robe with metallic 'greenish' tinge and fierce sparkling throughout. Aroma of freshly cut grass, cold pasta, young tree leaves in spring, cooked rice, some sourdough bread and soggy sandwiches. Neutral onset, fizzy carbonation with minerally effect, slender mouthfeel; there is something subtly metallic to it, but subtle enough not to disturb too much. Slick sweetish graininess with vague sourish edge (sourdough again), working to a mild but lingering grassy hop bitterness, even a bit peppery in the end and gently drying. Very pale in colour with is rarely a good sign, but in all quite effective and quenching - not bad at all in fact, almost as if a craft brewery mocks the macro standard lager industry by making a perfect imitation of it which is almost unnoticeably better quality...

440ml can. Crystal clear pale gold, white head. Aroma of mild woody spice, pale grainy malts. Taste of pale malts, grains, light toasty, subtle wood spice that comes through more as it warms, quite dry, very crisp. Light bodied. Great lager.
Just slightly edged it over the Yuzu one for me, this one is crisper and a bit less in your face. Drinkability a tad better then.

Draft at the Organ Grinder Lincoln. Orange colour with a slim head. Aroma and taste are very sweet some fruit and light bubblegum. More sweetness and a sweet finish. Is this what iron brew tastes like. Cloying body.
