Named after a group of cats, Clowder is the latest in our range of sour beers. An initial burst of fresh pineapple leads to tangy sour lime, with a big kick of ginger and chilli on the finish. The beer equivalent of your favourite roller-coaster. A taste experience and surprisingly moreish, you'll keeping going back for another go!

Pours a hazy, deep amber coloration with a small, fluffy, quickly fading head. Smells of pineapple and lime, with not much of the spice coming through in the aroma. Taste is an excellent balance of sweet, tart and zesty fruit notes of pineapple and lime and quite distinct, hot spice notes of ginger and chilli, with a subtle underlying tartness. Finishes with a medium/strong spiciness and hints of pineapple and lime lingering in the aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.
This is quite dominated by distinct, hot and spicy notes of chilli and ginger, with the sweet pineapple, zesty lime and underlying tartness providing a good counterpoint and smoothing things out somewhat though. While I'm sure this will be too spicy for some, personally I absolutely love it and think that it's well-balanced, with the spices being strong, but not too overwhelming. Also, the massive ABV is hardly noticeable here at all, with this drinking dangerously easily except for the spiciness. Mouthfeel is a bit thin, but really not too bad.
