Blueberry session sour. Huge dose of locally sourced berries. The charcteristic sherbert-like acidity from the House Mixed-Culture pairs in beautiful contrast with juicy blueberries.

330ml bottle. Pours unclear light red with a big foamy head. Red currant, blueberries, blackberries, blueberry yoghurt, lactic acid, lime, beetroot. Acidic sourness, light fruity sweetness. Light bodied, watery texture, fizzy carbonated, dry fruity sour finish. Quite nice, but average for Vault City standards.

330ml bottle delivered from Hoptimism and drunk at home. Bluish/purple/pink and hazy with a pinkish white head. Smells of blueberry yoghurt and a little bit of blackberry. Taste is exceptionally tart with a heavy blueberry flavour. Sourness penetrates every moment to the long finish. More berry in the aftertaste. This is quite a beer.

330ml bottle Sophie's Beer Store. Hazed deep purple appearance, purple-tinged head atop. Aroma is moderately sweet, juicy blueberry. Taste continues, good blueberry presence, perhaps a hint of blackcurrants, tart juicy moments. Very good.
