Hello, hello. With the recent arrival of spring, I figured this review should focus on a new arrival at NB Liquor this year; Mill Street Brewery's Lemon Tea beer. It currently sells for $3.49 for the 473ml can. At 5% ABV, it's a very light, incredibly smooth tasting "summer" beer.
This is a flavored wheat beer. So imagine a little bit of citrus taste already married perfectly in the beer and to that, add heaps of tea added in during cold-fermentation to leave you surprised at just how perfectly the two can play together. It's like. . . perfection for a summer beer. The tea and the lemon do not overpower the beer, but instead gives a nice dryer, bitter taste.
Seriously, every time you take a sip, you're left wanting another sip and at 5% ABV, you won't feel guilty having a few after work, or on the beach, or just because they're so tasty. Give this one a shot, it'll surprise your taste buds and you just may have to go back and buy a few more. Cheers!
