Craft Clapham. Keg. Route 66 event with most of the London crew. Murky amber beer, small cream colour head. Palate is light and minerally crisp. Acidic sourness, lemon and sharp white wine, never gets over the line but certainly flirts with it. Some apricot comes through. Light crisp finish. It’s fine but I could not drink much of this.

Tap at Route CBC. The appearance ain’t great...murky creamy brown with a decent white head. The nose is strawberry & cream, guava, soft raspberry, wood, vanilla and coconut. The taste is smooth, tart, creamy, strawberry, raspberry, funk, wood, decent acidity, lemon and must. Medium body and fine carbonation. Nice strawberry thing going on. Pretty tasty stuff.
