Can picked up at Kihoskh and drunk at home (25/10/2023) - Big blackcurrant prominence on the nose, taste follows with only a accent of that white grape coming through the tart blackcurrant goodness, nice body and mouthfeel, with light acidity, tart lingering close. Top drawer AF action here.

440ml can. Hazy deep purple, with a pink head. Aroma of blackcurrant. Taste of fizzy Ribena, loads of blackcurrant, it's sweet and tart, the white grape for champagne elegance is amusingly pretentious, you can't even taste any grape, it is however pretty fizzy. Another great NA sour, though my least favourite of this series so far.

0,44 boks som mellomstasjon på BBM: klar mørkerød (som solbærsaft) med fint skum som varer. Mye smak for en alkoholfri øl - solbær pluss hint av bjørnebær, blåbær og røde druer.

Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours hazy deep purple with a small bubbly pinky head. The aroma is sweet - sour, juicy, oily, heady notes of blackcurrant and bramble, purple chewits, splash of white wine and victoria sponge cake. The taste is very juicy, bright, sweet - sour, light sour pucker, ripe tangy blackcurrant and bramble, quite thick, fruit smoothie, touch of sherbet/sour candy, jam, victoria sponge cake and just a touch white wine with light acidity with a tangy juicy finish. Medium body and fine to moderate, prickly carbonation. Flavourful and fun.
