Taking London alt-pop outfit Banfi's powerful and bittersweet songs to heart, we collaborated with them to create the ultimate bittersweet beer – a powerfully drinkable 3.8% grapefruit sour.

The perfectly-balanced brew shares its name with the band themselves, while its refreshing and summery character is defined by its pleasant bitterness courtesy of the zest and juice of 281 grapefruits. No essence or puree here, thank you, just full, fruity and authentic flavour.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up at Clapton Craft this arvo. Pours hazy orange-gold with a slim, foamy white head. Lovely aroma, certainly some zesty citrus, lemon and grapefruit. Light sweet flavour with quenching lemony acidity, citric tartness, more grapefruit zest, a little salt, faint rind. Light bodied with fine, spritzy carbonation. A touch of acidic bite in the finish, more tart citrus fruit character, background zest. Dry and quenching. Great sour.
