Bottle shared in London. Pours clear copper with no head. So so, certainly oxidised, some mellow tangy berries, earth, dry caramel. Light to medium bodied, soft. Touches of warmth in the finish, dry bready malts, little caramel, nips of cardboard. Eh.

A ’liquer beer’ for ’cookimg or mixing’ says the label. Initially a shock to the palate it soon settles down to a sour malt beer that is quite mouth watering. Low carbonation.
