On the menu as Funkhunters, receipt said Funk Juice, pretty sure this is it. Opaque and peachy colour, thin head. Lots of apricot, some rasp, fairly full body. Not bad, good balance. Apricot/raspberry.

On tap at House of Funk, pours an opaque peachy orangey yellow with a small white head. Aroma is extremely fruity and pithy: there's lots of apricot, pithy raspberries, and some lacto that's mostly fruited over. Flavour is extremely fruity—indeed, smoothie-like—with lots of pithy raspberries, intense apricot, and lacto. There's light-to-moderate tartness that works well. Juicy, fruity, pithy, and tart finish. Good for what it aims for.

Poured from the tap. Murky gold with small white head. Tons of apricot with a hint of raspberry (seems they switched up the apricot/raspberry proportions this year). Quite tasty.

Draught at the brewery
Murky red colour, like a raspberry smoothie. Huge amounts of raspberry, thankfully without the tannins sometimes associated to it, some apricot puree, mild residual sweetness to help boost that fruit character, and a chonky body, that seems to fit to the fruit.
It doesn't feel like drinking beer, rather a smoothie, but it's very well done.

Taster. Appearance: murky rose with a rose head. Aroma: tons of raspberries with some nice apricot jam notes. Taste: similar, but mostly raspberries. Overall: awesome, I can drink this all day long for sure.
