A peppery zing in your beer
By Rocky | September 22, 2008
The native Australian Pepperberry is a bush spice which has a distinct pepper zing and is the special ingredient in James Boag’s latest seasonal release for the Australian Winter. The berry has been used by the Australian Aborigines for centuries and is not only a tasty bush tucker it has some medicinal qualities, today it is used in gourmet jams, chutneys and the like. The beer called the James Squire Pepperberry Winter Ale this beer is sure to please the beer drinker looking for something luxurious and a bit special. The beer is as you would guess fairly spicy, it has a medium caramel flavor with hints of chocolate and toffee. The pepperberry gives it a hot and interesting taste. Being an ale the beer is not short of flavour and is a perfect match for a rich winter roast or some tasty chocolate pudding. Look out for it in your Australian bottleshops, but hurry it is a strictly limited release and if my local bottleshop is any indication, it won’t stay on the shelves for too long.
