Born screaming from the combined might of Vibrant and Elusive, this sour beast is a worthy effort. Lemon in colour with a bright, zesty aroma. On the palate is a barrage of pineapple tartness that annihilates the senses and the finish is a gentle wash of biscuit malts. This is our joint gift to you.

half at Craft Beer company. Golden body with adequate head. Sharp, tart aroma, piquant. Sour leads the way for the taste too, although there is still a nice pale ale presence here.
