Can shared at Hori, koszi Elod! Murky, purpleish pour with no head. Illataban van egy kis fura ragasztos/gumissag, izre mar rendben, tisztabb, de a gyumi gyorsan elillan, a lecsengese ures, a szensav pedig szinte teljesen kimaradt belole.

Can from CCC July 2024 box. Murky reddish purple with a foamy, one finger light purple cap that fades quickly to a sheet, leaving spotty lace. Nose is bright tart raspberry with some light vanilla and grass. Light jam sweetness with a medium raspberry tartness that is more pronounced than in the nose. Mouth is medium with prickly carbonation and a tart finish. 7/3-/8/3+/14

473ml can. Pours a cloudy magenta with a medium, foamy, short lived, pink head that laces. Sweet fruity aroma of bready pale malt, raspberry and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready pale malt, raspberry, light vanilla and floral hops in a dry, tart, lacto finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Jammy and enjoyable.

Deep purple body with just a little smoke on the water (ha!). Great tart raspberry aroma, they get it right here and in spades. Taste is huge tart raspberry, sweet in just the right way, ends with good carbonation and a vague hint of vanilla. Whom of which could help out more, but otherwise excellent.

On tap at Category 12, pours an opaque bright pinkish red with a small white head. Aroma brings out pithy raspberries, yogurty lacto, and a touch of vanilla — smells a bit like unfermented wort. Flavour is jammy, with a more pronounced raspberry character, a touch of vanilla, and a gentle lacto base. Jammy raspberry mostly finishes this off, with a kiss of vanilla, and subdued lacto. Not a complex beer, but the jamminess of the raspberries are nice.
