Lou (500ml Bottle)
$12.00
Rustic Wild Amber Ale with Lemons From Lou’s Lemon Tree
Bottle Conditioned with Honey
6.0% abv
Lou is a beer blended in honor of my grandpa, Louis Marsten (1928-2024). It’s made with lemons from the tree he planted and loved, the same tree under which he spent countless afternoons sitting in the yard and holding court.
This beer is a barrel-fermented wild ale—nothing like the simple lagers he preferred. He would have hated it. I also think he’d appreciate the tribute.
Though it’s not a beer he would have liked, it’s a beer that I think really turned out to be a fantastic tribute. Lou is simultaneously subtle and bursting with bright fruit aromas. The character of freshly expressed lemon zest mingles with deeper citrus notes, contextualized by the slightly hazy amber beer in which they reside. Candied tangerine rind and earl grey tea bridge the floral citrus and deeper malt notes of cereal grain and créme caramel.
