Melville's strawberry & raspberry fruit beers

It seems every cider maker in Britain is jumping on the berry bandwagon at the moment. But berry beer served over ice? Innovative brewer Innis & Gunn is taking things to another level with its 4.1% abv strawberry and raspberry beers that also tap into the over-ice trend. Cold-pressed Scottish raspberries and strawberries are mixed with lager to create what the brewer is billing as a cool, refreshing summer drink without the bitter or sour flavours often associated with Belgian fruit beer. Melville's ([pounds sterling]1.59 for 275ml) first hit Tesco's shelves on 1 June during the multiple's three-week long beer festival. The beer is named after Melville Street in Edinburgh, which is where Innis & Gunn managing director Dougal Sharp was walking when he dreamed up the idea.
