Keg at North Hop. It pours cloud orange - amber with a small white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, fragrant, jammy, vanilla, blackberry and berry crumble. The taste is crisp, dry, soft, rather fruity, berry, creamy, blackberry smoothie, vanilla yogurt, minerals, lemon rind and straw with a drying finish. Medium body fine, foamy carbonation. World very well. Pretty much a berry smoothie in booze form.

Bottle from Cork & Cask. Murky pink body with a thin white head. Faint lacing. Flavour of strawberry milk, cranberry and Turkish Delight. Flavour of watery grain, rose petals and cream crackers. Thin body with a watery texture. Soft fizz. Definitely unusual but it’s a bit weird and insipid.
