Tart cranberry waves ripple over the tongue while a pulped backdrop of blood orange rounds the mouth. Like biting through an orange with a zesty burst giving way to a pithy body.

330ml can. Poured hazy dark pink colour with a mostly lasting fizzy white head and lots of bubbles. The aroma is yeast, a little dough, big cranberry and orange citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate sour, with a light, crisp, juicy citrus palate. Medium to light bodied with lively carbonation.

Can from Tesco. Deep orange in colour, with a thin, white, head. Aroma of citrus hops, red berries and sweet oranges. Taste had more fruit with some tartness in the finish. Fine.

Can from Tesco, Manchester. Pinkish-red in colour with a mid sourness as the raspberry in this subdues to an extent with a light sticky-sweetness. Its sourness still dominates though.

Can from Tesco. Pours hazy pink-tinged gold with a thin white head. Aromas of cranberry and orange. Taste is fruity too, both elements there. Nice sharp tartness. Enjoyed this.

[33cl wide-mouth can from Tesco, Warfield.] A hazy pinkish amber pour with an immediate fizz and a fast fading white head; cranberry aroma; sharp cranberry taste with a sweeter juicy blood orange body; and some spicy hops towards the end. Clean, refreshing, and not too tart for my tastebuds.

Keg at the Barrel Project Bermondsey, 26/01/19. Water melon pink topped with a light crimson cap. Nose carries a pink berry tang, damp straw, lemon rind, grass. Taste comprises sharp cranberries, light funk, cherry stones, hay bale, lemon tinged straw. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a light puckering climax. Decent enough refreshing sour.
