Say hello to our Sour Scale, with a series of 5 beers across the Vault City spectrum of sweet-tart to super sour.

For level 1 we’ve paired juicy oranges and creamy vanilla with our tangy mixed fermentation base beer to replicate the nostalgic, delicately tart flavours of an Orange Creamsicle Ice Lolly.

Rather enjoyable. Has a pleasant tart citric bite about it, mellow acidity, light jammy notes, maybe a whisper of vanilla. Does a fine job straddling the line between novelty and actually decent beer.

Cloudy, rusty-orange in colour with a white head. Excellent lacing. Smells like multivamin, a touch of vanilla, and a slight acidity. Medium body and carbonation, creamy consistency. Very sour at first, then a candy-like sweetness, a touch of vanilla, as if you were pouring a instant powdered drink into your mouth. It also definitely lacks beer flavour. Zero bitterness. Not what I expected, not for me.

Vault City Evening At Home Trio - Beer 1 of 3. Hazy orange coloured with plenty of orange fruit in taste, which in turn has plenty of sugars attached, which reach rich levels - so it's not only the fair sourness that your palate has to deal with in this one. Tarty aftertaste.

Keg at Sonder, Broadstairs, 01/10/2025.
Golden orange topped with an off white cap.
Nose is orange blossom, sugars, orange syrup, peach.
Taste comprises orange creme, vanilla, sweet tinned fruit vibes.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close.
I guess it does what it says on the tin but way too sweet and lacking any credible sour elements.

Hazy bright orange with a stable white head. Aromas of orange, cream/milk, vanilla. Taste is quite similar. Quite pleasant, but not really beer-like, tbh.

Putoooja25. Hazy orange colour with a small white head. Aroma is vanilla (ice cream) with some citrus and mild tropical fruity tones. Flavour is tart fruitiness with zest, vanilla and some lactose. OK, but not that "beery"...

Pint can from Coop in Edinburgh, Scotland. Pours a hazy orange-gold color with a white head and excellent retention. Great lacing too. Smells like a sweet creamsicle. Very sweet candy creamsicle flavor up front with a short tart finish. Not very sour, thankfully. Definitely no beer flavor here either. Medium-light body. Creamy texture. Medium carbonation. Zero bitterness. Better than I expected, but my expectations were pretty low.
