Can from BiervanEijk, Frederiksoord. Big sour blackcurrant upfront, but then the salmiac kicks in. Puckering sourness with salty liquorice. This is taking things way too far for me with clashing flavours, just no.

Can at BBT 5/2022. Not very beery, but very tasty. Med-full body, medium carbonation. High sourness, med-light sweetness and saltiness. Assertive blackcurrant, med-light licorice and salmiac. Very nice mix, well balanced, exciting. Very good.
