Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is fruity with moderately strong blueberry notes. Light phenolic, herbal and earthy notes. Light oak notes with a decent funk. Pours a hazy, purpleidh red, with a small, thick, pink head that recedes quickly to the edges where it lingers. No lacing and faint legs. Flavor is fairly acidic with moderate berry notes and a light sweetness. Moderate oak and funk notes. Light phenolic, tannic notes. Some earthy, herbal notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with high carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a really nice beer but the acidity is a bit sharp. Blueberry notes are nice with lots of tannins and some skin and phenolic notes. Nice funk, but I think it will improve with age.

Bottle. Clear deep purple color violet head. Aroma of dusty peppery berries. Taste is softly sour dry fruit, not very complex. Hi carbonation interferes with the mouthfeel.

Bodney Towers Bottleshare. Thanks to Tips. Cloudy purple brown beer, patchy purple head. Palate is light, dry and has modest fine minerally carbonation. Bitterish fruity bitter berries. Dry acidy berries. Light dry finish. Bitterish nuts on the aftertaste. Nowhere near the best sour I've had this evening.

Bottle shared in Hackney - thanks to Tipple. A slight gusher. Pours unclear purple with a small, creamy topping. The aroma has a bit of funk, tangy berries, blueberry, sweat. Light sweet flavour with assertive acidity, tons of tart berries, acetic burn, some woody dryness, grapes. Medium bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Quenching finish, more funky poo, tart berries, some salty sweat. Intense but pretty well rounded. Great stuff.

The taste is dry, bitter, tart, musty, funky, dirty, blueberry, blackberry, filthy, barnyard, bright acidity, sherbet and pithy and chalky tannin with a drying finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Filthy farmyard and fruity vibes. Good fun. Would be interesting to see how this one develops over time.
