Sour Bastard and Is that you Dad meet in this fruited kettle sour. A beverage to help you ease into those awkward encounters. Anyone for a game of catch?

Can. Colour is a nice purple, though it’s murky and there’s no head. The nose is full of berryish, cherryish fruit notes. On the palate this is much drier than I expected. Only slightly tart, bright fruity notes. Touch of yeastiness. Body is decent but there’s not a whole lot of malt expression. The fruit note is clearly the high point, and it could benefit from more attention to the supporting characteristics.

473mL can, pours a deep pinkish red with a medium pink head. Nose brings out lots of deep raspberries upfront, followed by the boysenberries and light pith. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of jammy berries, pith and gentle tartness. Juicy and tart, but without much depth. Very drinkable and tasty.

Taster at Alibi with Sonnet after CFE. Pours a purple with a rose head. Aroma is strange with dried fruits and rosehip berries. Taste is better, still those rosehip berries, but lots of raspberry as well. Quite good.
