Tap. Red amber, pink foam. Lovely floral apricot, grape wide vineous nose Mellow, fruity fizz, apricot and dry rose wine, fresh, well balanced, very drinkable, very fun. Shame I had to drink it next to a detective hobo.

Tap at Higgins bday. Clear red pinkish. Funky sour, grape, bitter. Surprisingly soft, full, deep. A nice tartness. This is not bad.

Bottle drunk at Higgins. Golden color, clear with small head. Nose reminds me of Riesling. Fantastic delicate flavor of white wine and light beer! Stone fruit notes. Really fantastic stylistic blend.

On tap at Higgins Ale Works Friday 5th May 2023 in the company of Jonas and Ursula. Apparently this is close to the end of the ke the keg, glad that we got to try it. Pours a dirty reddy pink colour, nice carbonation, soft mouthfeel, refreshing beer, nice soft tartness, not as zappy as expecting, but actually I really like it for that, I could drink a few of these very easily. Great beer/wine hybrid, with Flügge sadly gone perhaps Higgins could exploit this gap in the market?

Tap. Pink amber murky. Peaches. Grapes, Grapefruit rind, dry chalky. There is sweetness to it, but balanced by fruity tartness. Nice.
