5am Saint - Brewdog Brewers (Scotland)
70%Overall Score
5AM Saint is named as such because it is brewed with 5 malts, 5 hops and has a 5% ABV. 5AM Saint pours a deep amber colour with moderate head, exhibiting distinctive citrus aromas but also a noticeably grassy smell. I found the taste rather unusual and strangely addictive. Huge amounts of herb and dried flowers smack the tongue. Later, grapefruit and pine emerge from beneath and balance out the herbs. Hints of toffee and nut are also present in the mash-up. A strangely enjoyable beer with characteristics similar to an IPA. Here’s what the Brewdogs themselves have to say:
