Come one come all! A tribute to the language barrier from international collaboration & inspired by our affinity for a Danish runner’s scarf & shorts. This Bloody Show is a crisp, tart pilsner drenched with the juice & zest of blood oranges. The result is a refreshingly tart lager with big citrus aroma worthy of even the hippest of Danish drinkers.

Kentucky Fried Charleston Trip Beer #28. Draft at County Club. Pours a slightly hazy red-orange color with a large foamy tan head. Good head retention. Aroma of big citrus notes, pale malt, mild breadiness, faint herbal hops. The taste is citrus, pith, pale malts, hoppy finish. Medium bodied, fairly bright, slight lingering bitterness, good balance.

Fra fat på Craft Beer Co, Brixton 4 Nov 12. Mørk gylden. Litt uklar. Litt skum som fester seg til glasset. Litt tung plommearoma. Smaken som aromaen. Bra - men litt kjedelig.

Half-pint served chilled from keg at Craft Beer Co in Brixton, shared with Finn. Apricot coloured body, near-clear. Fragile layer at the surface. Fresh and dried fruity hops to the nose. Fresh apricot fruity taste added by red oranges and by mid-sweet malts beneath. Long-lived bitter finish. Medium bodied. Good last drink at the place (Greater London, 04.11.2012).

On tap at Craft Clerkenwell, Saturday 15th September 2012 Pours amber with a filmy white head, subtle orange and it really isn’t overdone however it is clearly noticeable. Tangy with a prickly light sourness, good beer but still not as good as the Fynes Ales Sanda IPA project with was superb. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.4

Tap at the Cask, Pimilico - 22/06/12. Rich honey/orange coloured beer with a frothy white head. Clean smelling beer of citrus, orange and grain. Hops in the flavour - presume Saaz, the orange/citrus is up front, grain and bready malts. Lightish bodied, good carbonation, clean crisp finish.

(Draught at Mikkeller Bar, Copenhagen, 6 July 2012) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, fruity nose with orange peel, citrus, apricots and tropical fruit. Malty, fruity taste with notes of grainy malt, blood oranges and dried apricots. Good citric bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with balanced sweetness. A bit different, but I kind of liked the fruity character in this one. Nice.

CP&K. Light haze on this amber beer. Tidy white head. Crisp minerally palate. A little raw pale malt, but not that much, turns creamy. Minerals. Mild marmalade, fairly watered down. Crisp finish. Not bad - fresh and crisp.

Tap at CP&K. It pours amber, with a thin off-white head. The nose is caramel, sweet fruit, resin, citrus pith, pine, leather and vinous notes. The taste is caramel, resin, leather, pine, sweet tinned fruit (peach, plum and nectarine), blood orange and raisin, with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. A decent fruit beer.
