This purple floral-fruit-fusion gives you sweetness and body from the generous additions of plum and pomegranate juice, balanced off by a gentle souring from the lactic produced by an ingenious tank sour yeast culture, all delicately topped off with a floral note of hibiscus flowers provided to us by our friends at Atkinsons.
Pairs well with quirky teapots you get on Etsy.

Can from LCB, 6 months in date. My 50th in the flavoured sour style and a new brewery for me. Pours a deep purple with small dark pinkish foam. Quite plum like in aroma with a touch of pomegranate and flora. Again taste is mostly plum with a hint of pomegranate and a light earthy floral note. Modest tartness but its pleasant and balanced in the flavour. Light to medium bodied, fairly slick but an edge of sherbet chalkiness. Half way between a standard fruit beer and an actual sour. Enjoyable though.

Can thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - deep purple and smoothie like. Thin off white head. Nose - red cherry and plum. Possibly pomegranate and hibiscus if you go searching for it. Taste - pomegranate and red cherry mainly. Light plum and funky edge. Palate - light bodied, firstly creamy dry and lightly sour finish. Overall - good.
