Can from Good Intent, Brum. Hazy-opaque gold. Foamy white head soon disappears. Aroma has light rhubarb sourness with some sugary strands. Flavourwise it has a light-medium sourness (rhubarb to be fair) but lacks custard sweetness. There's more of a dulled sweet edge. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-flat carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. An unexciting sour (haven't looked at the date on the can tho').

500ml can from Hop Vault, Stourbridge, online. Slightly cloudy gold with small fizzy white head, no retention but its a sour. A lovely rhubarb and custard aroma, fruity and creamy. Taste is the same. The custard flavouring is especially nice. Hint of wheat and yeast in the background to keep this real. Mosest sourness. Bittering hops kick in at the finish to give it some balance. Smooth body. If this a fake adjunct heavy beer then I will have to buy some more. Its just too tasty.

Keg @ Bailey Head. Misty yellow appearance, small white head. Overall character seems to be focussed on rhubarb and custard sweets from the days of yore, both coming through nicely on the aroma and taste, sweet but pleasantly so with a good sour edge. Bit novelty, but not too bad.
