We did a... thing. It's nothing normal. It's ridiculous. An exercise in excess. A palate smasher and nothing less.

We aged a batch of sour ale in Rum barrels for more than a year, and then abused it with insane amounts of fruit, ice cream and... most importantly (?!) - edible glitter.
Each and every element absolutely shines and blasts through outer space, shouting blasphemously at the Gods of conventional brewing.

The second version of SPARKLEPUSS changes colours, but doesn't lose its glittery shine. STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE relies heavily on huge amounts of strawberry purée, laced with luscious vegan (!) vanilla ice cream powder.

Remember to give the bottle a thorough roll and an aggressive SHAKE (!), making sure all those bits of goodness and glitter are properly mixed. They tend to separate in time (but they still love each other!).
