[33cl bottle from the Hive Beer Cafe, Crowthorne.] A hazy amber pour with a sparse white head; sour fruity aroma, reminding me of cider apples; initial sweet mango taste, then sharp and acidic before settling down to a tangy fruit body; then a long drier finish leaving a trace of salt on the lips. A pleasant sour.

Bottle ordered from A Hoppy Place, Windsor. Dank and tart fruit aroma. Hazy light gold. Frothy translucent white head. Initial burst of heavy sourness. Tangy. Then tones down a tad for a less intense smooth finish. The influence of the lychee? The fizzy carbonation adds a sherbert effect. Light bodied. Thin. Buoyed by the previously mentioned carbonation. Dry somewhat astringent finish. Good stuff. I can see why their sours have been getting great reviews. Very drinkable.
