Bottle. Pink pour. Aroma of sour cherry, tart, acidic sourness, raspberry, strawberry and wheat. Taste has strongly sour cherry, raspberry, strawberry, wheat, tart and lots of acidic sourness. I like sour, bit this is a bit too much, like fruited vinegar.

Ruikt naar aardbeien, framboos. Smaakt zuur, fruitig, rood fruit. Beetje munt. Net iets te scherp.

Quite nice but a hint heavy on the vinegar. Thanks for the sample Dale!

Bottle. Hazy red color with white head. Aroma is super ribisl, raspberries, all the red fruits. Taste is red fruits, so intensely fruity, super dry, almost too tart, but still solid. Mineraly mouthfeel, flat. I like!

Bottle @Beershoppe (Rome). Rossastra, appena torbida, schiuma leggera ed evanescente. Al naso note di frutta rossa, quindi emerge un acetico importante, note citriche, fenoliche, plastica. In bocca è acida tagliente, tart, acetica, impegnativa da bere. Corpo medio, carbonazione medio-leggera. Sgraziata, si fa fatica a finirla.

37.5cl bottle. Intense sour fruity nose. The beer starts very sour with lots of fruity vinegar. Lots of berries with sour cherries on top - very sour cherries. Fruity sour in the end, nice mix of cherries and berries, high acidity in the end. Nice sour.
