Bottle. Beermoth, Manchester. Hazy gold. Halo of white. Sweet, herby, soft, peachy toffee. Lightly acetic, fusty sourness. Taste is light sweet. Touch of dryness. Right amount of sour. Finishes light bitter, and light sour. Well balanced beer. Probably deserves a 4, but the equivalent of £18 a pint? Bonkers.

Tastes of tart notes, lemons, tart peaches, citrus, sour and acidic notes, light brandy. Medium-light body with a dry finish. Great stuff.

Bottle bought @ bierkompass.de Pours hazy golden with a small frothy and fizzy white head that doesn’t leave much trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is sour, fruity and tiny funky with wheat crackers, ripe peaches, lemon juice, moist hay, buttery wood, dry soil, brandy, cobwebs, unflavoured doogh, lemon zest and hints of white raisins. Taste is very sour, slightly salty, slightly fruity and tiny funky with sourdough crackers, lemon juice, lime juice, yuzu juice, unflavoured doogh, peaches, unripe apricots, moist buttery wood, moist hay, dry soil, barnyard, lime zest, lemon zest, unripe white grapes and hints of brandy. Mouthfeel is crisp, dry, tart, mouth-puckering and light bodied. Finish is sour, tiny salty, fruity and tiny funky with sourdough crackers, lemon juice, lime juice, ripe peaches, moist hay, moist wood, white grapes, dry soil, unflavoured doogh and hints of barnyard, lemon zest and brandy. The first taste was really a citric punch in the face but as you get used to the acidity a nicely complex brandy inspired fruit sour is revealed. Delicious…

Slight cloudy dark orange. No head. Nose is sweet wine like with Tang juice and a touch of apricot. Taste is quite nice. I like brandy. It’s sweet and fruity. Juicy fruit with peaches and that wine like oaky finish. Brandy certainly cuts through the acidity. It’s really nice and memorable

Bottle shared at a tasting. Simple and straightforward, this beer has as sour aroma with peace, and the flavor is also sour with prominent peace flavor. Very good. lasting, effervescent fruit and yeast on the palate.
