Description
Grozet lagered Celtic ale is 5% abv.

This beers name comes from the Gaellic ‘Grozeid’ or gooseberry. The age- old tradition of adding fruit to beers has become a fashion in the UK especially with the more ready availability of lambic beers from Belgium sweetened with fruit such as Leifmans Frambozen. Monks in Scotland added fruit to beer as early as the 16th century. A famous historical gooseberry beer was Tibbie Shiels green Grozet enjoyed by Walter Scott and Robert Burns.

The beer is brewed with lager yeast Bog Myrtle, Meadowsweet, gooseberries, Wheat Barley Malt and hops making it a distinct and unusual drink. It is a dry fruity wheat beer refreshing and light.
