Strawberries are the queens of summer: when they ripen in May, the warm, boisterous season begins and you know that frost, darkness, constant rain and endless gray are finally a thing of the past. We throw ourselves head over heels into the little red fruits and eat them at practically every meal: muesli with chopped strawberries for breakfast, a small snack made from fresh berries in between, a fruity salad at lunchtime and strawberries with cream for dessert, strawberry cake in the afternoon and when you then If you still feel like it, you can start the evening with a strawberry punch. We are crazy about the little red fellows and mourn the end of the season even when it has only just begun.
Fortunately, we are not the only fans: Kris Emmerling, gardener and brewer from Bamberg, not only grows hops and other greens, he also cultivates strawberries in his family’s nursery. He combines the deep red aggregate nuts with the Perle hop variety from his own cultivation and turns it into a wonderful fruit beer called Strawberry King.
The golden beer specialty is crowned with a blossom-white crown and has an enchanting scent of sun-ripened citrus fruits, freshly harvested mint and ripe strawberries. This first impression continues in the taste and kisses the tongue with a symphony of pale malt, strawberry and spicy lemon balm.
