7.5/10
One Stop advent calendar 21/24. The yuzu and cranberry work together surprisingly well.

Hazy, cranberry rich pour in LIC. Obvious kettle, lightly floral, white sugar, malty alcohol nose. Sour, super plastic, lime, cranberry juice, nutty oxidation. Frothy then fizzy, too vinegary. Kinda trash. One low point of the visit.

On tap at Finback - Brooklyn, pours a hazy reddish pink with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of tart cranberry and yuzu upfront, buried by lacto. Flavour is sweet and sour, with tart cranberry, citrusy yuzu, light lacto, and sugars. Pleasant enough incorporation of the fruits, and the sugar helps cut some of the lacto. But ultimately it�s a cheap kettle sour.
