Light saison brewed using a mix of European noble hops and lifted with a dash of lemon and orange to give an uplifting, citrussy edge to the rounded, estery, and subtly peppery base beer.

 

Back at the end of 2018, we were approached by our good friends at Moor Beer about joining an ambitious new brewing project designed to highlight and celebrates the achievements resulting from UK and EU collaboration - the Citizens of Everywhere project.

We were teamed up with Sweden’s Beerbliotek, a brewery who we have admired for a long time, and given the theme of the ‘protection of workers’ rights’ - a nice, if slightly challenging, starting point for designing a beer recipe. Through some rapid-fire emails, we landed on a grisette - a light saison historically brewed for mine workers - charged with citrussy flavours.
