Everybody is different, everybody is equal.
Sometimes people tell us that we do things in different way and different manner. Things that are not normal. There’s always someone who knows best what to brew, how it should taste and look like. Normally pale, around 5 abv. There’s always someone who knows better. In every aspect of life. This beer is sour, pink in color. It does not smell like malt or hops. It smells like raspberries and blackberries that we used in it. And not just that. Some beetroot juice adds a nice shade to the color and nice wet soil flavor in the aftertaste. At the end of the day it’s still beer. Maybe a bit more colorful and brighter than other stuff on the shelves but 100% real.
With this beer we celebrate diversity.

(Bottle, from Bottl3.5hop, Stockholm) Hazy red colour with frothy, pinkish head. Fruity, slightly sourish nose with notes of raspberries, blackberries and red fruit. Fruity, tart taste with raspberries, blackberries, lemon, a touch of beetroot and a dry and tart finish. Light body, quite dry. Fairly mild acidity, but tasty and refreshing. Quite enjoyable.
