We're back on the cocktail-inspired train and the first of the year is based on an elegant classic, the Kir Royale.
Stupendous amounts of locally sourced blackcurrants substitute the creme de cassis and the addition of (not so local) white grape lends a champagne like sweetness.
Beautifully tart and typically full bodied Modern Sour Beer.

Bottle at home from an online peddler. Pours murky plum with a pinkish head. Aroma is lots of fresh Blackcurrant, bit of cherry and plum, hint of funk. Taste is Blackcurrant, champagne yeast, funk. Sharp and fruity, well balanced. Super stuff
