A take on traditional eastern European Kvass- a low alcohol cereal based sour drink.
A mash of rye, spelt and einkorn bread from e5 Bakehouse and the Kernel Brewery's saison, fermented with sourdough starter and saison yeast and aged on raspberries.

Bottle. Kernel online. Dusky pink. Slim ring of foam. Raspberry yoghurt. Some lime juice like tang. Taste is dry and tart. Not bursting with life on the palate. Dry tart finish. Ok.

Bottle from Kernel webshop. It pours hazy reddish - busy with a dissipating white head. The aroma is sour, tangy, lactic, musty, sourdough starter, bready action and zingy raspberry. The taste is crispy, dry, tart, puckering, zingy, lactic, tangy, puckering raspberry, granny smith apple, nip of acidity, splash of rose wine and a fairly restrained old rye bread character I'm the backdrop with a drying finish. Light body and fine carbonation. Can't see much relation to kvass, but it's a nice quenching sour ale nonetheless.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from E5. Pours lightly unclear pink with a fading, fizzy white foam head. Lightly sweet with engaging fresh and tart raspberry character, low acidity, mild seedy bitterness. Light bodied with spritzy carbonation. Quenching finish, more bright raspberry, mellow tartness. Super drinkable. Nice stuff.
