You Choose, We Brew – A bold mission for a brewery with an audience as eclectic and curious as ours. Nevertheless, you brought your A-game and we reviewed over 2,000 submissions before choosing long-time Vault City fan Joseph Cattmull’s unique recipe idea.

We combined sweet, sour and spicy flavours with fresh apple, tropical mango, chilli flakes and blossom honey sourced from our pals at Scottish Bee Company (just 15 miles from the Vault City brewery).

On tap at Cardinal, Stavanger. Hazy yellow colour, moderate white head. Aroma of apples, cinnamon and mango. Rich smoothie mouthfeel. Flavour like the aroma, also notes of honey. Hints of chili warmth.

Tap at Drinkøteka. Murky golden-orange body, off-white head. Heavy candyish honey notes over some sugary mango and apple in the aroma. Bit spicy honeyish taste, smooth, lightly vegetal, mostly sugary apple and vague mango. Okay, bit flawed.

hazy golden colour, medium sized dense ecru head; aroma of vanilla pudding, tutti-frutti, mango (juice), some apple and slight cinnamon notes; taste is quite the same with chili peppery spiciness in the aftertaste; strange one, though still enjoyable

Tap at Brewdog Tower Hill. A clouded golden orange coloured pour with a a halo of white head. Aroma is semi sweet, jammy apple curd, tangy green apple, vanilla, juicy fruit, crumble. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, spicy green apple, apple curd, jammy fruit, hint of spice.. Palate is semi sweet z tangy, highish fine carbonation. Loads of fun, not much honey detected.

Can from The Rusty Bucket, Eltham. Apple pie, mango, peach & pineapple aromas. Peach, mango, apple pie, honey, pineapple & a light touch of chilli - quite subtle - in the taste. Sweet & juicy with a light warning edge.
