Strong Classic

Diesel是一款英国酒吧经典，将等份拉格啤酒和干苹果酒与一滴黑加仑子糖浆混合。黑加仑将淡色金黄色的混合液染成深紫黑色，让人联想到Guinness。它是一款适合长饮的长饮品，设计在一品脱杯中供应。

History & Origins

The Diesel is a staple of British pub culture, believed to have originated in the UK during the 1970s or 1980s when blended beer-and-cider drinks became fashionable. It is closely related to the snakebite but distinguished by the addition of blackcurrant cordial. Origin and authorship are disputed and unrecorded.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: yeasty lager malt, dry apple from the cider, and sweet dark berry from the blackcurrant cordial. Palate: lightly malty and crisp with a sweet-tart blackcurrant note running through the mid-palate. Finish: dry apple and berry with gentle carbonation.

Pro Tip

Pour the lager first, add the blackcurrant cordial, and gently top with cider to maintain the carbonation and achieve an even deep-purple color.
