Bottle split at Travlr tasting @ Chriso, thanks to Gene, 30/09/15. Hazed pink with a moderate off White covering. Nose is plastic - rather harsh in this respect, light funk, straw, red berry notes. Taste comprises raspberry pips, straw, light balsa, lemon drizzle, pink berry. Light to medium body, spritzy carbonation, semi drying close with moderate puckerings. Would have been a deleting ’Linner but for the nose which really dragged thisone down a few notches.

Bottle shared in London at chriso’s. Cheers! Pours cloudy grapefruit orange-pink with a creamy head. Tangy citrus in the nose, faint plastic, hay, melon. Light sweet flavor with a bit of buttery cereal, tart berries, lemon, mellow acidity. Light bodied with average carbonation. Tart finish, somewhat cleansing, a bit more acidic citrus, more cereal, popcorn. So so.

Multiple pours of this one throughout its development and ultimate presentation. Cloudy pinkish color, small bright white head. Nice aroma of strawberry yogurt, distant feet. Taste is nicely balanced between softly tart and fruity, with subtle citrus. Delicious, and very easy to drink.

4oz and full pour at the brewery. Poured a very cloudy pink color with a very light white/pink colored head. Aroma was heavy notes of strawberry, grains, some rhubarb. Flavor was like a yogurt strawberry rhubarb desert that the girlfriend had made the previous night. Very light and refreshing. Very enjoyable. Very easy to drink. Nice light tartness on the finish, not sour, just tart. For a first attempt, or at least what I think is their first attempt, this was quite good. More of these and fewer IPAs please. It looked like half the tables in the bar area were drinking this.

Copper pour with ok head and lacing. Very wooden with astringent barley finish. Only light hints of lemon, and some nut. A little off style for my liking, even though I like rhubarb. Tap at brewpub a few weeks ago.

4oz pour at the brewery comes out extremely hazy, basically opaque pink with some cloudy white head. Nose has a ton of yogurt, sour cream, some straw, some rhubarb, white flour, a hint of strawberry. Flavor is tart and has plenty of white flour, but the strawberry is there too, as is the rhubarb but more subtly, some grapefruit juice, some vitamin c. Medium, tart finish. Light, refreshing and quite nice.
