HEDGEROW

SOUR CHERRY WILD ALE

Before dawn word went round the tree was ripe and in we swooped, all a-twitter. The human was there, throwing stones to scare us off, but we feasted until all was gone, then joyously took to the sky, singing in the sunrise. Good things taste better when shared, so sip of this sweet-tart cherry ale – the 1st in our foudre series – and be sure to share it with all your friends.
