Bottle from Bierkoning, Amsterdam. Aroma is quite fruity with pineapple, tart lemon, soft passion fruit, and wheat. Flavour is quite puckering sour with a little bitterness in the finish. Body is light. Very acidic and sour with lots of tart fruits, I dig it.

Bottle from Beer Moth Manchester. It pours hazy bright gold with a tiny, fizzy white head. The is dirty, musty, creamed cheese, funk, cracker, straw and subtle tinned pineapple. The taste is crazy tart upfront, massive mouth - pucker, sour candy, lemon sherbet, passion fruit, tart pineapple, lime juice, some acidity and light lactic vibe with a dry finish. Light body and fine, prickly carbonation. Very tart indeed. Aroma is a bit off - putting & the taste is overly tart (something I don’t say often).

330ml bottle from Piccadilly Tap, shared with Finn. Filmy layer. Yellow-gold body. Perfumed citrus on the nose. Fruity tartness to the taste buds, little more. Soft carbonated. Thin bodied. Cleanser, far from great (hotel room, Hull 23.11.2015).

Hazy yellow - gold beer, small white head. Palate is light, semi dry and has a sharp crispness. Fairly tart, a little lemony sour over mild lacto sour. Tempered by pineapple. The passion fruit is well buried. Dry crisp finish. Not bad.
