This is a combination of styles Wander Beyond and Arpus are known for best. Oxford & Loran is an Imperial pastry sour with berries. We fermented our base imperial sour recipe with maple before adding Redcurrants, Blueberries, Blackcurrants, Gooseberries and Blackberries and vanilla. Expect a big punch of sweet dessert berries followed by a refreshing sour kick in the finish. For the design, Arpus' cats sit proudly with flower crowns made from all the beer's ingredients!

Draft. An unclear deep red beer with a pink head. The aroma has notes of lactose, blackcurrant, blackberries, funk, and yoghurt. The flavor is sour with notes of blackcurrant, gooseberries, blackberries, wheat, and yoghurt, leading to a tart finish.

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours deep red, with rather fine link foam. Aroma is fairly intense of cherries and strawberries, recalling a cherry pie. Body is average, with moderate carbonation. Taste is an interesting mix of medium sour and moderate sweetness. Final is chewy and fairly long.

Can 44 cl. Pours an opaque, deep red with a creamy, pinkish head. Vanilla and a berry melange aroma. Rich, suggests sweetness but absolutely isn't. Tart, dry berries paired with that underlying vanilla. Quite odd really and not overly pleasant. 270723

Can at home bought for Barbara’s birthday, 28th May 23. Pours a dark red. Aroma is tart berries, light vanilla. Taste is yore tart fruit and berries and a little relief from the vanilla. Refreshing, could do with a bit more layering though
