Treat Yo Self!

ARTWORK BY HAZEL DUNN

BLACKCURRANT SOUR
6.6% ABV
SEASONS CHANGE

Treat Yo Self! is a 6.6% Kir Royale inspired brew. Our love of the blackcurrant flavour, bramble tarts and all things decadent made us re-brew this beer several times over the years since its Christmas 2020 inception. 

Since those early days we’ve developed the recipe to make way for more blackcurrants and a more prominent hedgerow hop character. The result is a finer balance between a dry brambly sensation and a fuller zingy-creamy fruitiness.

The beer includes120 grams of all natural Blairgowrie grown blackcurrant purée per litre of beer. The carbonation is high. Nearing fruit lambic territory. A bright acidity puckers the lips after breaking through a persistent frothy pink head. The beer sits just above 3 on pH scale so be prepared for a sour hit, but the creamy edge of the blackcurrants smooths the palate before a very dry finish.
