Brewed in collaboration with Brewlab at their event hosted at The Hanging Bat.
"We’ll be using cascara, the highly caffeinated dried fruit of the coffee cherry to brew up something that, to our knowledge has never been done before: a cascara beer."

Dense black body with a thin tan head that holds well. Lots of sticky lacing marks. Aroma is coffee, brambles and Twiglets. The flavour is more tangy than the aroma suggests - sharp berries and underripe plum. There’s a lovely charcoal quality to this. Thin to medium body with a watery, slightly oily texture. Soft carbonation. Tangy, dry and flavoursome - this is really rather nice.
