Thankfully on the way home from work Friday I stopped in at the local “Tavern.” This was a special Friday apparently since there was a rep from Castle Danger roaming around. Now I am no stranger to a local craft beer, but normally I try to keep my crafts within the city limits. Thankfully Rich came around giving me a sample of the Castle Danger’s Summer Crush!
I have a new favorite summer brew! I was hesitant in trying this brew in the past since I’m not a bit fan of fruity beers. This is not a beer made with fruit. It is made with the same 4 ingredients as (normally) all other beers. Water, barley, hops and yeast. The kicker is the hops were picked to resemble lemon and the barley (or malt) was chosen to simulate tartness. This giving it just the hint of a lemon flavor.
This 4.0 ABV beer is one that you can have a few of on a hot summer day. (Or many if that’s your choice! It would be easy to do!)
To me this is the perfect summer beer. Crisp, refreshing and delicious! One you can have multiples of and none of the gut rot from all the sweetness!
Cheers to you Castle Danger! And Thank You!
