--Sample, thanks oh6gdx! -- Citric nose with tart mirabelles. Citric with medium body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Tart plums in citric acid. Low bitterness. The first decent beer I had from Vault City, but completely without complexity.

Bottle (Alko Web). Hazy amber colour with a small white head. Aroma is nectar, some tart wood, sour floral tones with mild almonds and some plum tones. Flavour is kind of tart plum, some wood, mild nutty tones as well as some slight alcohol sweetness to it.

375ml bottle bought from Hoptimism and drunk at home. Pinkish gold and cloudy in appearance with almost no head. Aroma is sharp of plum, pastry, marzipan. Taste is very tart and incredibly refreshing with sour plum to the fore. Long tart finish with stone fruit, bramble, sour cherry. Another delicious sour by Vault City.

375ml bottle Sophie's Beer Store. Unclear, muddy opaque rusty gold with large white head. Gorgeous plummy sweet nose. Taste presents a lovely vivid plummy depth complemented nicely with a well-integrated vanilla presence. Not really coming across with bakewell notes, almond quite low in the mix, but like all Vault City beers it's incredibly flavoursome, fruity and hugely enjoyable.
