Can courtesy of Kostas Kykao brewery cheers Kostas! Consumed at home in the company of Jonas and Ursula after a lovely hike in the hills behind Deggendorf Saturday 17th May 2025. Pours for all the world looking like a fruit juice, tastes also very fruity, peachiness shows, the sourness is good, the vanilla is there but not working quite as well. It's really bonkers but in a good way.

Intensiv fruchtiger Beginn, cremig, etwas bitter. Spritzig, wenig Laktose, hohe Süffigkeit. Pfirsich, minimal Limette, die Säure bleibt konstant und eher schwach. Nett. 10/10/11/11//10

Bottle from B is for Beer, Chania This is a pastry sour Aroma is milkshake, intense oranges lemon and exotic fruity aroma, reminds me of the US Frose´ kind of sours. The high alc% cannot e sensed in the aroma, but adds a great debth and intensity to the body of the aroma. Great stuff. Flavor is oranges, exotic fruits, a bit of peach stone, and some fresh peaches, bit of sourness. Almost beyond beer by flavor, the fruits are more like a fruit smoothie than fruit juice and certanly than frut beer. This is a brave and well orchestrated attempt at copying the crazy american frose' like things that showed up few years ago. Great experiment.
