Rio: The best song by Duran Duran, one of our favourite soft drinks and the inspiration for our latest sour brew. Orange, guava, mango, apricot and passionfruit dance over your palate just like that river twisting through a dusty land.

440ml can. BBE 12/23. Poured a murky golden orange colour with a very short-lived, fizzy white head. The aroma is light passionfruit mango. The flavour is moderate sour, with a mostly smooth, tart gooseberry, pear, mango palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation apart from the initial fizz. Tasty, but longer lasting bubbles would be nice. It was totally flat after the initial effervescence.

Keg at MS HW, 29/02/20. Murky fruit smoothie orange with a decent white cap that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is papaya, sharp passionfruit, on the turn melon, grass, light funk, stoned fruits. Taste comprises passionfruit, prickly pear, light acidic bimble, grass, gooseberries, mellow funk, sharp citric twinge, fucked over mango. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close with a modest puckering climax. A solid refreshing sour with a good dose of fruit.
