We study the Tannakian properties of the category of perverse sheaves on elliptic curves endowed with the convolution product. We establish that for certain sheaves with unipotent local monodromy over seven points the corresponding Tannaka group is isomorphic to G2. This monodromy approach generalizes a result of Katz on the existence of G2-motives in the middle cohomology of deformations of Beauville surfaces.
