Bottled@Butcher & Banker, Vaasa. Pinkish purple colour (hard to describe), with a small pinkish head. Aroma is raspberries, some sour wood, mild lactic notes with a bunch of black currant (especially as it warms up a bit). Flavour is black currant, some tart wood, mild lactic notes as well as some slight toffee and also a we bit toasted notes. Nice one!

Bottle from japppp. Cheers. The blackcurrant is to the fore in the funky aroma. Hazy murky pinky-violet. Frothy pink tinged head. Medium sour. Hints of sweetness. An almost champagne chalkiness. It's as if the cherry is adding an element of restraint to the blackcurrant. Light bodied. Thin. Fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Enjoyable but I would have liked more cherry.

Smell of blackcurrant. Muddy dark red colour, small beige head. Aroma of blackcurrant, some gooseberry. Cherry in finish. Sour. Basically juice. Prime example of what's wrong in current sour ale fad.

Bottled 330ml (Pien)
Deep red colour, small steady pinky head and lace. Strong black currant juice aroma with cherry and black currant leaves. Medium-bodied. Tartish black currant flavour with cherry tart-sweet backup. Grandma juicy. Well-brewed but not very "beery".
