Named after atom bomb test grounds, designed by a French car engineer - the bikini was to many a disturbing and degrading creation and fortunately for others a symbol of emancipation. This is attractively light bodied, seductively well balanced and very drinkable Sour Bikini is anything but a sissy beer.

Keg at BBF 6, 26/09/14. Hazed light golden yellow with a moderate off white covering. Nose is zesty citrics, light pine, grapefruit, yuzu, tangerine, straw, spice. Taste comprises mandarin, straw, lemon rind, spice, citric pangs. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, funky licks in the close. Solid but a lot more hoppy than sour!

From tap. Pours hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is peachy and slight citrusy. Citric, tart and dry. Crisp and fruity. Citrusy and smooth into the finish.

Pours hazy gold into my Mikkeller tulip. Mild leather and citrus aromas. Tart with lemon and lime upfront turning to dancing sage and mild pith before the lasting meringue finish. This one grew on me...

22 oz. bottle, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Nose brings out juicy citrus notes, medium funk and a little hay. Flavour is extremely citrusy and juicy, with light funk and hay. Super juicy and funky. Awesome stuff. Too drinkable.

Draft at Birreria Paradiso in Georgetown. Hazy to cloudy yellow color, small white head. Amazing floral and perfumy aroma, lavender, dusty haystacks. Taste is softly sour summer fruit. I could drink this all day.
