This AF beer is bursting with jammy red fruits and dark cherry. Expect light tannins and lush red fruits with hints of cacao, black pepper and blackberry leaf.
We’ve mirrored some of our favourite red wines as inspired by the lovingly curated offerings at Reserve Wines so we’ve thrown a load of ancho chilli, cacao, black pepper, blackberry leaf, fresh lemon zest, ginger and dried orange in the whirlpool to really bulk out the robustness of these wonderful rich flavours

Can at home picked up from 73 Enid Street. A deep dark red purple coloured pour with a lasting dark pink purple head. Aroma is dark and dry mixed berries, cranberry, blueberry sweetness, blackcurrant, jammy dark berries. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, ribena, vimto, dark and dry berries, blackcurrant and blueberry, white sugars, hint herbal notes. Hints of schloer in the finish. Palate is semi sweet, mellow fizz Pretty tasty, quite unusual.

Keg at 73 Enid Street, 13/02/2026.
Ribena red topped with a crimson cap.
Nose is red berry fruit esters, sugars, herb.
Taste comprises sweet sugary red berry juices, faint herb, blueberries.
Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, semi drying close.
Passable affair for an AF ... overly sweet and sugary.

Pours deep purple red with a pink fluffy head that fades to islands. Jammy red fruit, hint of black pepper, light oak, fruity red wine notes. Really good fruity low alcohol number. Enjoyed this
