The 3.7% beer is described as a ‘Lemon Meringue Pie in a glass’ and features Sorachi Ace and Citra hops, as well as a biscuit and amber malt bill.

According to Weird Beard, the idea behind the beer was to de-construct the dessert and make a beer that featured a little bit of all the components that make up the pie.

The zest, and flesh, of 30 fresh lemons was added to the boil, while a “hefty” amount of dried lemon peel was added prior to fermentation.

The brewery explains: “We wanted a balanced beer, so afterwards we loaded the kettle with lactose for more sweetness and to create a creamy body to subdue the tartness of all the lemons.

“For the hops, there had to be Sorachi Ace. Firstly, we love that hop and really don’t need much of an excuse to brew with it and secondly, it gives huge lemon refresher flavour.

“This works with what we were going for, but we also added Citra, for more natural citrus-fruit notes. Then, a hefty amount of dried lemon peel was added as the beer made its way to the fermenter, which adds layers and complexity to the flavour profile of the beer.”
