Unique Aspect
The bigger sibling of Sleeping Lemons, the only difference is an increase in the amount of malt used to create a higher-gravity wort. As such, it is sweeter, juicier, richer giving it the likeness of Lemon Meringue Pie. I has a biscuit malt base, a full lemon curd acidity and a light, meringue sweetness. Initially it was all to be shipped to America, but we liked the recipe so much that we had to keep some back for ourselves!
Food Pairings
At 6% the alcohol becomes a character of the beer, sweet and a little hot. This heat will stand up to bold flavours in the kitchen and may overpower delicate flavours. Along with its tart acidity, it pairs incredibly well when paired with Moroccan spiced dishes, the preserved lemons in the beer coming into their own.
Again thinking of the beer as an additional ingredient the salt and lemon aspect is perfect for white fish dishes, it’s what you’d likely add to it anyway!
