Bottle at home, thanks to James, 09/03/19. Hazed amber with a reddish glint topped with an off white cap. Nose is stoned fruits, green berry must, funk, straw, elderflower cordial. Taste comprises elderflower, light white peppery spice, green berry skins, tangy citric shreds, grains, funk. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced puckering climax. Decent sour.

Keg at The Rake, Borough. Tart gooseberry aroma. Hazy blood orange in colour. Creamy white head. Medium-heavy sourness. Tart. But it works. The gooseberries come through. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. As mentioned it doesn't overdo things and almost feel it should be more sour. But I still enjoyed it.
