A pale, sour fruit ale. All of the sourness in this beer is derived from the rasping acidity of the wonderful Gooseberry fruit. Super refreshing.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Dancing Camel. Thanks Tom L. Golden. Lovely sour aroma full of juicy fruity hops, some manure, fruitiness. Tart flavor with juicy fruitiness, mostly from hops, and a bitterish finish. Quite light-bodied. Really good and refreshing.

Bottle from Cork & Cask. Hazy golden body with a thin white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of dragon fruit, grapefruit and nettles. Flavour of tart berries and underripe melon. Thin body with a watery, slightly oily mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Very refreshing. I liked this a lot more than I thought I would.
