To celebrate 5 years of sour beer we brewed something extra-special - a style that put this brewery on the map. 999G/L Apricot Raspberry Birthday Cake showcases the essence of what we do at Vault City: a delicately sour mixed fermentation beer with a ridiculous fruiting rate of 999 grams per litre, the legal limit of what we can use while still calling it a beer.

This intense smoothie sour is the 5th of its kind from Vault City. It’s thick, juicy, and totally unforgettable.'

Tap at Drinkoteka. Murky dark pink body, lighter pink head, thick. Huge vanilla-lactose aroma with fermented raspberry notes and some other undefined fruit, maybe stone fruit. Creamy taste, sour fruitiness, raspberry and vanilla, dry, sour, unsure of the aromatic profile of the apricots used. Nice and less nice at the same time.

Can shared at craft beer junction bermondsey tasting. Many thanks to me. A thick peachy oranre coloured pour with a halo of white head. Aroma is semi sweet, Victoria sponge, strawberry. Jam, white sugars, perfume, Lychee, raspberry, drying raspberry,. Powdery.. Chewy, clouds, tangy, fizzy cake batter, very weird.

Can shared at CBJ - cheers to Fergus. Pours murky pink with a frothy, pink-orange topping. Medium sweet flavour, ample tart berries. The texture is crazy, thicker than syrup, low carbonation, gooey. Finishes with more tart berries, moderate acidity. Pure novelty.

440ml can kindly shared by Synny. Rating session with lmojoh, Synny, and Finn. Pours an unclear, thick orange coloured body, a few bubbles on the surface, poor lacing. Smell of berry-fruits, doughy. Strange kind of taste, doughy cake with moments of berries and fruits. Vanilla sweet, doughy end. One-off. (Tromsø 12.10.2023).

Spandert av Synny. Delt med henne, lmojoh og Rune i Dr. Lies gt. Gusjerød. Heftig vaniljekremaroma. Ser ut som sirup under kvelling. Smaken vanilje - med hint av bær.
