Can at HopTop, courtesy of the crew, köszi srácok! Burgundy pour with an immediately dissipating head. Nose is intense, tart and jammy currants, it's really in your face. Taste is sour, and I mean REALLY sour, to the extent that I found myself sipping on it real slow cause I simply just weren't able to drink it, like drink-drink, in a normal pace. But at the same time I was loving every sip, it was bursting with the currants. Medium bodied with soft carbo, the ABV is very dangerously hidden. Nice.

Tap at Lopni Beczku 4. Purple body, pinkish head. Tart taste, currant-driven, gummy bears, lovely berry notes. Lean, tart berry taste, big vanilla notes, a bit too tart. Dunno, didn't dig the taste / body as much as the aroma, but good stuff.

Tap at 100 piv. Thin body, high carbonation. High sourness, seems mostly fruity, nice intense and clean currant character, light tartness. The vanilla comes out more as the beer warms, med-light intensity. Not very beery, but a worthy currant beer.

Tap. Pours ruby with pink head. Currant is quite apparent, alcohol on the other hand not, what makes it quite dangerous. Silky smooth, light sourness. Very good.

Can from hoppyness.sk. Red currant color with Minimal head. Clear aroma of both currants. Taste, red currant is more dominant than black, this reminds me to my father's red current wine with touch of black currant. Vanilla, light marzipan is also present. Fruity sourness, ligt tartness. Very good.
