Keg at Three John’s. It pours deep purple with a thick light purple head. The nose is earthy, musty, dirty, smoked cheese, light plastic and blackcurrant skin. The taste is crisp, tart, good mouth - pucker, lemon peel, Granny Smith apple, some acidity, sour blackcurrant, earth, hint of smoked cheese with a firm, dry finish. Light + body and moderate carbonation. Looks great and has some nice aspects to it. Unfortunately a bit of smoke is kicking about, which I don’t like. Overall not too bad.

33cl bottle. Pours a clear, dark ruby with a tall pink head, lambic kriek-style. Smells like blackberries, gooseberries and blackcurrants, and funnily enough of peated whiskey. Sour and a bit peated, with notes of blackcurrant (I haven’t tasted this since I was a child), pickles and a bit of apple vinegar.

Manchester Beer & Cider Festival 2016. Purple-pink in colour. There’s not a lot of aroma, but it’s very sour in taste.

Bottle, batch 755. Pours deep dark red, with a creamy red head. Aroma is forest berries and blackcurrants, as well as some wooden notes. Medium to full body, with soft carbonation. Flavour is tart musty fruit peel and berries, with dry earthy farmhouse notes and tannins. Dry, musty finish.

Cask-conditioned at the Three Tuns, Bristol, 2/12/2015. Ribena coloured, with a thin, pink head. Blackcurrant flavours dominated throughout, with sweetness avoided and a touch of sourness in the aroma and finish. fine.
