Ruby pour with a pink head. Notes of raspberries, yogurt, some vanilla. Clean, tasty. Could do with a bit more tartness and even a bit of wild funk.

Bottle at home in Hackney - sourced from HB&B. Pours slightly unclear blood red with a frothy, pink head. Super juicy raspberry character throughout, with moderate tartness, hints of seedy bitterness, light alcohol kick. Almost jammy at points. Medium bodied with delicate, massaging carbonation. Fairly clean on the finish, more rich and vibrant raspberry character. Delicious. Don't think there are too many beers as drinkable as this at 8.5% ABV. Lots of fun.

Bottle. Vault City online shop. Deep pink with a light haze. Fine, pink tinged white head is lasting and leggy. Nose has freeze dried raspberry. Jam sponge. Milky Bar. Twist of lemon. Bright flora. Taste is sharp and tart, with a moderate, vanilla sweetness. Surprisingly dry on the palate. Soft, fruit smoothie silliness. Low carbonation. The ABV is totally hidden. Tart and fruity raspberry to finish. Great beer despite the fact it’s not beer.

Bottle from Vault City online. It pours a crazy purple with a decent pinky - white head. The aroma is bright and juicy, sweet - sour, crazy jammy, fresh raspberry, light vanilla and victoria sponge cake. The taste is crisp, dry, tart, juicy and bright, sweet - sour, fresh, lovely jammy fruits, vibrant raspberry, light hit of brambles, hibiscus comes through in the taste, vanilla and victoria sponge cake with a tangy raspberry finish. Medium body and fine, velvety carbonation. Plenty of flavour and lovely balance. Incredibly moreish.
