Introducing a pastry sour inspired by a Christmas classic. Bursting with festive flavour, we've layered rich, fruity notes with seasonal spices.

Santa might get the milk and cookies, but we’re keeping the mince pies (and the beer) for ourselves…

Keg at Mash Paddle, Enid Street, 19/12/2025.
Murky reddish hues topped with a dirty crimson cap.
Nose is tangy fruit esters, herb, spice, winter cheer, mixed berries.
Taste comprises sultanas, dried berry fruits, lactic tang, herb, pastry notes.
Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a modest pucker.
Fun enough and gets the mince pie message over ... just lacks sour as usual for VC!

440ml can. Pours hazy reddy purple with a medium head. Aroma is blackberry, mince pie spice, pastry and apple. Taste has sour blackberry to start, with sour spiced mince pies throughout. Some vanilla and pear on the aftertaste.
