330ml bottle. Cloudy, amber-ish, brown colour with small, frothy, fading, off-white head. Tart-ish, tangy and slightly fruity aroma, notes of bramble, hints of red berries, sweet-ish floral hibiscus overtones, a minimally woody and leafy touch as well. Taste is sweet-and-sour fruity, notes of bramble, a dry touch of hibiscus, rose hip, shrubs; soft to flat carbonation. A bit insipid and therefore not quite as refreshing as could be.

Craft Islington. Keg. Almost clear amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is smooth and fairly dry, decent fine carbonation. Trace of yogurt here, really just a trace. Decent berry tang and a generic fruity hibiscus bounce. Light finish. Trace of cooling pine. A tad thin but goes down easy enough.

Bottle shared in Hackney - thanks to Daniel. Pours unclear amber with a small, creamy, off-white head. The nose holds tangy berries, lemon, cranberry. Light sweet flavour with moderate acidity, more tangy berries, little salty bite, some woody aspect. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Decent balance in the finish, more nice berry tartness, hints of wordy dryness, cherry, cranberry, nips of sweat. Quite enjoyable.
