Bluntrock Brewery - No Low Can You Go? Pale Ale
Bluntrock brewery was born in 2021 in Rock, Cornwall. This pale ale is their first alcohol-free beer (0.5% ABV). It comes in a 440ml can (with some eye-catching artwork) and is a vegan brew. The ingredients are given as malted barley, oats, hops and chilli peppers. Upon pouring into the glass the body reveals itself to be decidedly opaque and sitting on top is a lively frothy head which soon subsides. There is a strong citrussy aroma. And so tastewise, NLCYG is full-on citrus, particularly grapefruit and lemon, with maybe a touch of restraining peach. I can't detect any chilli pepper amongst the flavours. An effervescent and light body makes for an easy quaff. Consistent with the flavours, the finish is quite sharp. Overall, it is a promising first AF beer from Bluntrock.
