Can at home in Hackney - picked up at Clapton Craft. Pours totally clear pink-red with a small, foamy light pink head. Easy drinking overall, has some mellow tart cherry, low acidity, a nip of seedy bitterness, dried cherry skins. Light bodied with average carbonation. Lightly tart on the finish, more cherry skin, dried berries, mellow seedy bitterness. A light salty note in the aftertaste. Drinks pretty easy.

Can at home, 06/05/18. Golden with a pinkish hue topped with a very faint crimson head of bubbles. Nose is grassy, stale bread, grains, faint cherry sherbets. Taste comprises mild cherry cough drops, balsa wood, straw, grains, faint lactic tang, red berry snap. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a very restrained acidic nip. Was actually quite refreshing on a hot summers evening but lacked depth and imagination ... low end sour.

Can picked up at Oddbins Ldn Bridge. It pours clear pinkish - golden with a small white head. The aroma is soft of sweet - sour, tangy, cherry drops, earthy, musty, wet leaves and barnyard funk. The taste is drying, more bitterness than expected, earthy, musty, dirty funk, wood, tannin, berry skin, mouldy stuff, damp leaves and a bit of dirty spice with a drying and vaguely tannic finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Wish the cherry character was more expressive and this was cleaner. Tough going to get through really.
