Bottle at Leighton's Pleasure House. Thanks to the host! It pours clear ruby red with a small white head. The aroma is fresh, bright, rather juicy, berry skin, cherry, jammy, candy and funk. The taste is crisp, dry, bright, juicy, good mouth - pucker, plenty of berry, cherry, jammy, sherbet, mouth - pucker, lactic edge and wood with a dry finish. Medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. Really juicy and fruity. Eminently drinkable stuff.

Bottle shared in Hackney - sourced from Beergium. Pours clear red with a frothy, pink head. Great aroma, lots of bright and tangy berries. Light sweet flavour with moderate acidity more berries, a little woody dryness, some dried berry skins. Medium bodied with fine, spritzy carbonation. Quenching finish, lots of berry tartness, a little woody dryness, refreshing acidity. Wonderful beer overall.

At a tasting, thanks, almost no head, murky dark red color, aroma of berries and yoghurt with some funk and a hint of vanila, flavor of berries and yoghurt with some red wine vinegar and white wine in the back, strong almost piercing but also quite mellow sourness. Highly enjoyable.

(On tap @ MBCC 2017 Yellow Session, Copenhagen) Deep red pour with a pinkish head. Notes of rather sour fruit, blackberries are clearly dominant but also mixed tart berry quality, slightly puckering acidity is mixed acetic/lactic, a touch vinous, light drying oak, yeasty dusty cellar, fruit concentration is solid but it's not particularly jammy, finish is sour and drying. Light to medium bodied, average carbonation. Solid beer but missing a certain something that kicks it over the top. At least it is not overbearingly sour.

Sampled from bottle, many thanks Erzengel! Deep unclear purple color with pinkish head. Aroma is acetone at first, but then yoghurt, leathery, cinnamon, blackcurrants take over. Taste is wood, tannic, some cinnamon spices, blackcurrant skin maybe, not really fruity in flavour anymore. Tart leathery finish. Silky mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Easily drinkable, very nice one. It lacks something to be a complete winner, though, it's both a bit too light-bodied and not complex enough in flavour.

Many thanks to jtclockwork for this bottle. Sour woody nose. The beer starts sourish red woody. Funky hints, sour wood, a bit of vingar in a quite thin ending. The beginning is rich and deep, the further it gets, the more thin it gets - and warming alcoholic parts appear. Long thin woody sour aftertaste, ok for a US sour though.
