FogHorn Brewery Summer Ale

One of FogHorn’s original beers, Summer Ale may have spent most of its history being enjoyed inside the Newcastle brewpub but, when it joined the canned lineup late in 2019, the beer was given the opportunity to branch out further. And what a natural beer it is to can too; one designed for a barbie by a Newcastle beach. Or any beach. Or any barbecue.

Driven by Australian Enigma hops upfront and German pilsner malt, it's a beer that's light on the palate while still packing a hop basket's worth of fruity flavours. Largely that's a mix of melon, lime and orange with a substantial bitterness that finishes things off.
