Speights Brewery has crafted the Samradh Ale, a unique and refreshing beer perfect for those warm New Zealand summer days. This flavored ale has been delicately infused with ginger and Caribbean pimento berries, resulting in a subtle yet invigorating spice profile. The pimento berries, known for their cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and pepper notes, have been carefully incorporated to create a harmonious blend with the ginger, which helps to stabilize and meld the flavors. The result is a mouthful of zest and spice, perfect for those seeking a flavorful and rejuvenating beer experience. Samradh, the Scottish Gaelic word for summer, is an apt name for this summer-inspired brew, crafted in the city of Dunedin, which is steeped in Scottish heritage.
